Monday Meditation: The Father's Hand

 

 

 

"As for God, His way is perfect!  The word of the Lord is tested and tried;
He is a shield to all who take refuge and put their trust in Him."
(Psalm 18:30)

While through this changing world below

I would not choose my path to go;

'Tis Father's hand that leadeth me,

Then O how safe His child must be.

 

Sometimes we walk in sunshine bright,

Sometimes in darkness of the night;

Sometimes the way I cannot see

But Father's hand still leadeth me.

Sometimes there seems no way to take,

But Father's hand a way doth make.

Sometimes I hear Him gently say,

"Come follow Me, this is the way."

Why should I mind the way I go?

His way is best for me, I know.

He is my strength, my truth, my way,

He is my comfort, rod, and stay. 

So on we travel hand in hand,

Bound for the heavenly promised land.

Always through all Eternity,

I'll praise His name for leading me.

"The Father's Hand"
Ida L. Cornett
