VI FOUNDATIONS
Reading edition
”Those things which cannot be shaken”—Heb. XII:28.
Now again the world is shaken, Tempests break on sea and shore; Earth with ruin overtaken, Trembles while the storm-winds roar. He abideth who confideth, God is God forevermore.
Thrones are falling, heathen raging, Peoples dreaming as of yore Vain imaginations, waging Man with man, unmeaning war. He abideth who confideth, Christ is King forevermore.
[22]
Human wisdom in confusion, Casts away the forms it wore; Ancient error, new illusion, Lose the phantom fruit they bore, He abideth who confideth, Truth is truth forevermore.
Right eternal, Love immortal, Built the House where we adore; Mercy is its golden portal, Virtue its unshaken floor. He abideth who confideth, God is God forevermore.
