Bliss He wakes, and woe He lightens;

God is wisdom, God is love.

2 Chance and change are busy ever;

Man decays, and ages move;

But His mercy waneth never;

God is wisdom, God is love.

3 E’en the hour that darkest seemeth

Will His changeless goodness prove;

From the gloom His brightness streameth;

God is wisdom, God is love.
