Your Designs Unfold

1 You are our source and final end,
the font from which creation flows;
true peace dwells in you alone,
firm hope for all believing hearts
2 The time is growing short
The world is passing away
In the twinkling of an eye
You will recreate the world
REFRAIN
Help us love you with all our heart
and be of one accord
So all wounded with broken hearts
May know you are their saving Lord
3 We beg you, Lord, with humble prayer
to prune away all harmful things,
that you may be forever praised
by those who raise their voice in song
O Godhead, everlasting light,
O undivided Trinity,
though frail, we now confess your name
and beg you, hear our prayer..
REFRAIN
4 We place our faith in you most high:
O Father and your only Son,
and God the Spirit ever blest,
the bond of love uniting both.
5 You foil the plans of the nations
Your designs are unfolding
Be vigilant and pray at all times
To stand before the Son of Man
6 For you alone have caused all things
and you alone suffice for all;
for each, you are the one true light,
those who hope, to love you perfectly
7 We ask the Father and the Son
and beg the Spirit of them both:
Sustain us with your loving care,
who reigns forever three in one.
