My Stability

Though waves may break Though mountains quake I have a peace the wrong can’t know In desert sands In foreign lands I have a joy where’er I go In great alarm In sudden harm I shan’t be moved; He’ll strengthen me When peoples melt In dark that’s felt My endless light He’ll ever be When nations rage When nations change My King will never change at all With every breath In life or death He’ll lift me up; He’ll hear my call When days are dark He’ll be my ark He’ll save me from the raging sea Like Noah, He Will rescue me Like then, right now He sets us free He reads the heart No end, nor start Nor bounds of time or space has He Since ancient days His righteous ways Have always been; they’ll always be I know that He Won’t turn on me His Book won’t fade–not any page His judgements stand In any land In any culture, any age The past He knows I know he goes Before me, past what I can see He stands by me He’ll always be My constant, my stability
