Adon Olam

REIGNED the universe’s Master, ere were earthly things begun;

When his mandate all created Ruler was the name He won;

And alone He’ll rule tremendous when all things are past and gone.

He no equal has, nor consort, He, the singular and lone,

Has no end and no beginning; His the sceptre, might, and throne,

He’s my God and living Saviour, rock to whom in need I run;

He’s my banner and my refuge, fount of weal when called upon;

In His hand I place my spirit, at night-fall and rise of sun,

And therewith my body also; God’s my God—I fear no one.
