My Constant God

O God, You are the constant in my life,
You are my moon by night, my sun by day,
You are my mainstay in the midst of strife,
You keep me walking on my feet of clay.
O God, You're always there and ever here,
Your will is with the world more than the sea,
I see the stars You shape and have no fear,
You tend the twilight, then You turn to me.
You plan my birth, and now You see my death,
You fix every event except my will,
You count my first cry to my final breath,
I counted on You then, I trust You still.
O Constant God, You have a heaven for me,
help me to place my constant faith in Thee.
