God of the Ages
If Thou But Suffer God to Guide Thee

1. God of the ages, whose almighty hand leads forth in beauty all the starry band of
shining worlds in splendor through the skies, our grateful songs before thy throne arise.
2. Thy love divine hath led us in the past; in this free land with thee our lot is cast;
be thou our ruler, guardian, guide, and stay, thy Word our law, thy paths our chosen way.
3. From war's alarms, from deadly pestilence, be thy strong arm our ever sure defense; thy
true religion in our hearts increase; thy bounteous goodness nourish us in peace.
4. Refresh thy people on their toilsome way; lead us from night to never-ending day; fill
all our lives with love and grace divine, and glory, laud, and praise be ever thine.
