Change is our portion here!
The calm and sunny sea
Sleeps, when the wildest storm is near;
So doomed to change are we:
But faithful is Jehovah�s word,
�I will be with thee,� saith the Lord.
Change is our portion here!
Youth�s smooth unwrinkled brow
Age soon shall furrow, and the tear
Down the fair cheek shall flow:
But faithful is Jehovah�s word,
�I will be with thee,� saith the Lord.
Change is our portion here!
Soon fades the summer sky,
The landscape droops in autumn sear,
And spring flowers bloom to die;
But faithful is Jehovah�s word,
�I will be with thee,� saith the Lord.
Change is our portion here!
Yet �midst our changing lot,
�Midst withereing flowers and tempests drear,
There is �that changes not:
Unchangeable Jehovah�s word,
�I will be with thee,� saith the Lord.
Changeless, the way of peace;
Changeless, Immanuel�s name;
Changeless, the covenant of grace,
Eternally the same:
�I change not,� is our Father�s word,
I will be with thee, saith the Lord.
