<p>Commit thou all thy griefs<br>
And ways into His hands,<br>
To His sure truth and tender care,<br>
Who heaven and earth commands.</p>
<p>Who points the clouds their course,<br>
Whom winds and seas obey,<br>
He shall direct thy wandering feet,<br>
He shall prepare thy way.</p>
<p>Thou on the Lord rely,<br>
So safe shalt thou go on;<br>
Fix on His work thy steadfast eye<br>
So shall thy work be done.</p>
<p>No profit canst thou gain<br>
By self consuming care;<br>
To Him commend thy cause, His ear<br>
Attends the softest prayer.</p>
<p>Thy everlasting truth,<br>
Father, Thy ceaseless love,<br>
Sees all Thy children&#8217;s wants, and knows<br>
What best for each will prove.</p>
<p>Thou everywhere hast sway,<br>
And all things serve Thy might;<br>
Thy every act pure blessing is,<br>
Thy path unsullied light.</p>
<p>When Thou arisest, Lord,<br>
What shall Thy work withstand?<br>
Whate&#8217;er Thy children want, Thou giv&#8217;st;<br>
And who shall stay Thy hand?</p>
