GOD IS EVERYWHERE.
God guides us o’er the barren wilds,
And o’er the waters still;
He guides us in all walks of life
If we but do His will.
Is with us in the sunshine bright,
And in the falling rain;
And God is in the pastures green,
And in the growing grain.
And He is in the fragrant flower,
And in the smallest weed;
Is in our every thought, and act,
Is in our every deed.
He dwells upon the mountains high,
He dwells upon the lea;
He made, and rules the ocean grand.
He dwells upon the sea.
Through ignorance we oftimes sin,
God loves us though we fall;
He helps us to arise again,
Does ever on us call.
’Tis vain to mourn, ’tis vain to weep,
And we should feel, should know
That life is not a funeral dirge,
That life is not all woe.
And we must live for others’ weal;
Of evil e’er beware.
And we must love, and we must trust;
For God is everywhere.
