LyicsWhere'er I rest, where'er I rove,
On solid earth, or faithless sea,
The promise fills my soul with peace:
God cares for me, God cares for me.
The various tribes of earth and air,
Fed by his bounteous hand I see;
This care the blest assurance gives,
God cares for me, God cares for me.
The pestilence may walk abroad,
Yet, O my God, I trust in thee;
This plague may waste, I fear it not;
God cares for me, God cares for me.
When death is nigh, I will not fear
That I shall then forsaken be;
The gracious promise still is mine,
God cares for me, God cares for me.
And though I slumber in the grave,
Not then shall I forgotten be:
The resurrection will prove
God cares for me, God cares for me.
