(To the tune of "God Our Help Ages Past.") Lord of the everlasting hills, God of the boundless sea. Help us through all the shocks of fate, io Keep our trust in ihee. When nature's unrelenting arm Sweeps us like withes away. Maker of man, be thou our strength, And our eternal stay. When blind insensate, heartless force, Puts out our passing breath. Make us to see thy guiding light. In darkness and in death. Beneath the roll of soundless waves, Our best and bravest lie ; Give us to feel their spirits live, Immortal in the sky. We are thy children, frail and small. Formed of the lowly sod ; Comfort our bruised and bleeding souls, Father and Lord and God.
