This spinning world by Your own hand

This spinning world by Your own hand

This spinning world by Your own hand
This spinning world by Your own hand

This spinning world by Your own hand

 Hurls ever on around the sun

 The seasons march at Your command

The old departs, the new year comes

And though celestial is Your gaze

 You search and care for all our ways

 We offer up to You this day

And all of our tomorrows

 

May zealous youth and cautious age

 Determine not the steps we choose

Great Shepherd, guide us through each day

Oh, how we want to follow You

Come Living Way, our way make clear

 Let perfect love drive out our fear

Be Thou our vision, now and here

 And all of our tomorrows

 

When winter makes us reminisce

Of warmer days so distant now

Of cherished saints the sun once kissed

 Whose beauty passed behind the clouds

 Let all our fond and longing tears

Remind us we are pilgrims here

 We trust You, Sovereign of our years

 With all of our tomorrows

 

 Hands to the plow, we’re pressing on

 And running hard to win the prize

Empowered by the love of God

With grace before and grace behind

For lo, what hope before us stands

 You finish all that You began

 Eternal joy is in Your hands

 And all of our tomorrows
