Lord of All Hopefulness - The Jamborees
Lord of all hopefulness
Lord of all joy
Whose trust ever childlike
No cares could destroy
Be there at our waking
And give us we pray
Your bliss in our hearts
Lord at the break of the day
Lord of all eagerness
Lord of all faith
Whose strong hands were skilled
At the plane and the lathe
Be there at our labours
And give us we pray
Your strength in our hearts
Lord at the noon of the day
Lord of all kindliness
Lord of all grace
Your hands swift to welcome
Your arms to embrace
Be there at our homing
And give us we pray
Your love in our hearts
Lord at the eve of the day
Lord of all gentleness
Lord of all calm
Whose voice is contentment
Whose presence is balm
Be there at our sleeping
And give us we pray
Your peace in our hearts
Lord at the end of the day
Lord of all hopefulness
Lord of all joy
Whose trust ever childlike
No cares could destroy
Be there at our waking
And give us we pray
Your bliss in our hearts
Lord at the break of the day
