Hymn 264 — "Thou art the Same," our one, unchanging God,
| 264 | H.D'A. CHAMPNEY | 10.10.10.10. |
| 1 |
"Thou art the Same," our one, unchanging God, Who sittest high above the angry flood; With Thee for refuge, and with Thee for strength, We shall, though fierce the storm, reach home at length. | |
| 2 |
If on the road we find a vale of tears, A scene of sorrow and disturbing fears, 'Tis joy to know the time cannot be long Ere all is changed, and sadness turn to song. | |
| 3 |
We must give thanks, though deep the sorrow here, For 'tis in grief that Thou dost draw so near; Dost touch Thy people in Thine own sweet way, And turn their night of weeping into day. | |
| 4 |
O what a God! How can we sing Thy praise? The hymn's too great for our poor hearts to raise. And yet we must our adoration bring; Thy Spirit lifts us up, and makes us sing. | |
