83 ~ God of my Life
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.
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.
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.
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.
