God of patience and endurance,
Steadfast as the steadfast stars
Stands Thy promise, Thine assurance
Unto Thine ambassadors;
I, thy God, will strengthen thee,
Where I am, there thou shalt be.
Lord, we would endure, O sift us
Clear of weakness, make us strong;
Lord, we would endure, O lift us
Into joy and conquering song;
Cause us in Thy peace to dwell
Seeing the Invisible.
Let us welcome all life's weather
Whatsoever it may be,
And, or singly, or together,
Find our heart's delight in Thee,
Our Redeemer, our Adored,
Lover and beloved Lord.
