Knowing Thy way is always best (147)

Knowing Thy way is always best,
However dark it be-
Knowing that we, would we be blessed,
Must ever look to Thee.

May we in all things see Thy hand,
And always bless Thy name,
Submitting to Thy blest command-
Whate’er Thou dost ordain!

We know not what Thou hast in store,
Joy, sorrow, good, or ill-
We only pray that we the more
May trust Thy perfect will.
