Not a birth unmoved can stand.
Build your hopes on things eternal,
Hold to God's unchanging hand.
Trust in Him who will not leave you,
Whatsoever years may bring.
If our earthly friends forsake us,
still more closely to Him cling.
Hold to God's unchanging hand.
Hold to God's unchanging hand.
Build your hopes on things eternal
Hold God's unchanging hand
When your journey is completed
If to God you have been true
Fair and bright, the home in glory
Your enraptured soul shall be
Hold to God's unchanging hand
Hold to God's unchanging hand
An d your hopes on things eternal
Hold to God's unchanging hand.
