God holds the key to all unknown,
|
|
| 1. | God holds the key to all unknown, |
| | And I am glad; |
| | If other hands should hold the key, |
| | Or it He trusted it to me, |
| | I might be sad. |
| 2. | What if tomorrow's cares were here, |
| | Without its rest? |
| | I'd rather He unlocked the day, |
| | And, as the hours swing open, say, |
| | My will is best. |
| 3. | The very dimness of my sight |
| | Makes me secure; |
| | For, groping in my misty way, |
| | I feel His hand; I hear Him say, |
| | My help is sure. |
| 4. | I cannot read His future plans; |
| | But this I know: |
| | I have the smiling of His face, |
| | And all the refuge of His grace |
| | While here below. |
| 5. | Enough; this covers all my wants; |
| | And so I rest; |
| | For what I cannot, He can see, |
| | And in His care I saved shall be, |
| | Forever blest. |
