Can I doubt his tender mercy, who through life has been my guide? Heavenly peace, divinest comfort, here by faith in him to dwell! For I know whate’er befall me, Jesus doeth all things well. 2 All the way my Saviour leads me, cheers each winding path I tread, gives me grace for every trial, feeds me with the living bread. Though my weary steps may falter, and my soul a-thirst may be, gushing from the rock before me, Lo! A spring of joy I see. 3 All the way my Saviour leads me, O the fullness of his love! Perfect rest to me is promised in my Father’s house above. When my spirit, clothed, immortal, wings its flight to realms of day, this, my song through endless ages: Jesus led me all the way!

To me his Holy Spirit speaks many a precious word of rest to one who's seeking a refuge in the Lord.

Thus speaks the High and Lofty One

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 90 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 37:26-31 Lyrics: Thus saith the high and lofty One: "I sit upon my holy throne; My name is God, I dwell on high, Dwell in my own eternity. "But I descend to worlds below, On earth I have a mansion too; The humble spirit and contrite Is an abode of my delight. "The humble soul my words revive, I bid the mourning sinner live, Heal all the broken hearts I find, And ease the sorrows of the mind. ["When I contend against their sin, I make them know how vile they've been; But should my wrath for ever smoke, Their souls would sink beneath my stroke."] O may thy pard'ning grace be nigh, Lest we should faint, despair, and die! Thus shall our better thoughts approve The methods of thy chast'ning love.
