Thy planning and thy love go on,

Nor dost thou leave me far behind;

I’m carried to another dawn.

The new day breaks. From earth’s old mold

Fresh flowers grow along my way.

New light is flashed on problems old;

On ancient life new forces play.

O wondrous, wakeful Warden! When

The last great nightfall comes to me,

From that deep slumber rouse me then,
