God moves in a mysterious way |
|
His wonders to perform |
|
He plants HIs footsteps in the sea |
|
And rides upon the storm |
|
Deep in unsearchable mines |
|
Of never failing skill |
|
He treasures up His bright designs |
|
And works HIs sovereign will |
|
Ye fearful saints, fresh courage take |
|
The clouds you so much dread |
|
Are big with mercy and shall break |
|
In blessings, in blessings |
|
In blessings on your head |
|
Judge not the Lord by feeble sense |
|
But trust Him for His grace |
|
Behind a frowning providence |
|
He hides a smiling face |
|
His purposes will ripen fast |
|
Unfolding every hour |
|
The bud may have a bitter taste |
|
But sweet will be the flower |
|
Blind unbelief is sure to err |
|
And scan His work in vain |
|
God is His own interpreter |
|
And He will make it plain |
|
In His own time |
|
In His own way... |
