To all of those who know and care
Please be assured that God’s still there
Behind a crowd of works and deeds
Invisible when He succeeds.
He hears them while these mortals scheme
And hovers over the lost dream
He boosts our strength as faith survives
The world outside wrestles and writhes.
Our wish remains within His eye
Though plots and plans oft go awry
He knows what’s true and what is not
What we recall and have forgot
His love is sure and full of grace
But once it’s lost cannot replace.
