Put thou thy trust in God
In duty's path go on;
Walk in His strength with faith and hope
So shall thy work be done
Commit thy ways to Him
Thy works into His hands
And rest on His unchanging Word
Who Heav'n and earth commands
Though years on years roll on
His cov'nant shall endure;
Though clouds and darkness hide His path
The promised grace is sure
Give to the winds Thy fears;
Hope, and be undismayed;
God hears thy sighs and counts thy tears;
God shall lift up thy head
Through waves, and clouds, and storms
His power will clear thy way;
Wait thou His time, the darkest night
Shall end in brightest day
Leave to His sovereign sway
To choose and to command;
So shalt thou, wond'ring, own His way
How wise, how strong His hand
