Rowland Williams (1818-1870)

O Thou hope of all the ends of the earth;
Thou on Whom our fathers hoped,
and were not confounded;
Thou, Who knowest whereof we are made,
and whereby our shortcoming,
have pity on us,
O Lord.
O Helper of the helpless,
and Stonger than the strong,
remember all who are in distress of
mind, body, or estate;
succour them according to their need.
It is meet and right,
in all things, for all men,
in joy and sorrow,
alone and all together,
to remember and worship The,
to trust in Thee,
and praise Thee,
Lord and Father, King and God,
Fountain of life and immortality,
Source of everlasting good.
Thee all the heavens hymn,
and higher spirits praise,
crying to each other,
or going on the work which Thou givest them,
and so perfecting praise.
Blessed be the Dweller of Eternity,
my Strength and my Deliverer,
my Salvation and my Refuge for ever.
Amen
