God's Eternal Now

Stillness midst the ever-changing,

Lord, my rest art Thou;

So for me has dawned the morning,

God's eternal now.

Now for me the day unsetting,

Now the song begun;

Now, the deep surpassing glory,

Brighter than the sun.

Hail! all hail! thou peaceful country

Of eternal calm;

Summer land of milk and honey

Where the streams are balm

There the Lord my Shepherd leads me

Where so ever He will

In the fresh green pastures feeds me

By the waters still

Well I know them, those still waters

Peace and rest at last

In their depths the quiet heavens

Tell the storms are past,

Nought to mar the picture fair

Of the glory resting there
