none is like god

none is like god, who reigns above,
so great, so pure, so high;
none is like god, whose name is love,
and who is always nigh.

in all the earth there is no spot
excluded from his care;
we cannot go where god is not,
for he is everywhere.

he is our best and kindest friend,
and guards us night and day;
to all our wants he will attend,
and answer when we pray.

o if we love him as we ought,
and on his grace rely,
we shall be joyful at the thought
that god is always nigh.
