Lyics

Heavenly Father! to whose eye

Future things unfoled lie;

Through the desert when I stray

Let thy counsels guide my way



Lord! uphold me day by day;

Shed a light upon my way;

Guide me through perplexing snares

Care for me in all my cares.



Should thy wisdom, Lord decree

Trials long and sharp for me,

Pain, or sorrow, care or shame,-

Father! glorify thy name.



Let me neither faint nor fear,

Feeling still that thou art near;

In the course my Saviour trod,

Tending home to thee, my God.
