John Bacchus Dykes - O strength and stay - ноты, текст песни (слова)

1.
 O strength and stay upholding all creation,
 Who ever dost thyself unmoved abide,
 Yet day by day the light in due gradation
 From hour to hour through all its changes guide;
 
 2.
 Grant to life's day a calm unclouded ending,
 An eve untouched by shadows of decay,
 The brightness of a holy death-bed blending
 With dawning glories of th'eternal day.
 
 3.
 Hear us, O Father, gracious and forgiving,
 Through Jesus Christ thy co-eternal Word,
 Who with the Holy Ghost by all things living
 Now and to endless ages art adored.
