Alternate Author Name(s): Oxenham, John
Subject(s): Jesus Christ; Religion; Theology


Our God is an eternal Christ,
Unchangeable, unchanged.
His Love is still as warm and true
As when life's common ways He ranged
Beneath the Syrian blue.

Our God is an eternal Christ,
And Christ is Very Love, --
The Love that, ere the world was made,
He with His justice interwove,
As He the way surveyed.

Our God is an eternal Christ,
All tender, wise, and true,
As once He was to those of old,
So is He now to me and you,
Till all the tale is told.

As Christ was then, so God is now,
A wise and loving friend.
No feeblest cry will He deny,
But of His best will surely send,
And that right instantly.
