Lyics

"MY times are in Thy hand,"

My God, I'd have them there;

My life, my friends, my soul I leave

Entirely to Thy care.



"My times are in Thy hand,"

Whatever they may be,

Pleasing or painful, dark or bright,

As best may seem to Thee.



"My times are in Thy hand,"

Why should I doubt or fear?

My Father's hand will never cause

His child a needless tear.
