138. God Will Take Care of You

1 Be not dismayed whate’er betide,
God will take care of you;
Beneath His wings of love abide,
God will take care of you.
God will take care of you,
Through ev'ry day,
O’er all the way;
He will take care of you,
God will take care of you.

2 Through days of toil when heart does fail,
God will take care of you;
When dangers fierce your path assail,
God will take care of you.
God will take care of you,
Through ev'ry day,
O’er all the way;
He will take care of you,
God will take care of you.

3 All you may need He will provide,
God will take care of you;
Nothing you ask will be denied,
God will take care of you.
God will take care of you,
Through ev'ry day,
O’er all the way;
He will take care of you,
God will take care of you.

4 No matter what may be the test,
God will take care of you;
Lean, weary one, upon His breast,
God will take care of you.
God will take care of you,
Through ev'ry day,
O’er all the way;
He will take care of you,
God will take care of you.
