73. 8 & 7s. M. Bowring.

God is Truth and Love.

1 God is love; His mercy brightens

All the path in which we move;

Bliss He wakes, and woe He lightens;

God is wisdom, God is love.

2 Chance and change are busy ever;

Man decays, and ages move;

But His mercy waneth never;

God is wisdom, God is love.

3 E'en the hour that darkest seemeth

Will His changeless goodness prove;

From the gloom His brightness streameth;

God is wisdom, God is love.

4 He with earthly cares entwineth

Hope and comfort from above;

Everywhere His glory shineth;

God is wisdom, God is love.
