CH1941, Hymn #83

Verse 1
God of my life, whose gracious power
Through varied scenes my soul hath led,
Or turned aside the fatal hour,
Or lifted up my sinking head.

Verse 2
In all my ways Thy hand I own,
Thy ruling providence I see:
Assist me still my course to run,
And still direct my paths to thee.

Verse 3
How do Thy mercies close me round!
Forever be Thy name adored;
I blush in all things to abound;
The servant of a gracious Lord.

Verse 4
I rest beneath Thy kindly shade;
My griefs expire, my troubles cease;
Thou, Lord, on whom my soul is stayed,
Wilt keep me still in perfect peace.
