Text: | Give to the winds thy fears |
Author: | J. Wesley |
1 Give to the winds thy fears;
Hope, and be undismayed;
God hears thy sighs, and counts thy tears;
God shall lift up thy head:
Through waves and clouds and storms
He gently clears the way:
Wait thou his time, so shall this night
Soon end in joyous day.
2 Still heavy is thy heart?
Still sink thy spirits down?
Cast off the weight--let fear depart,
And every care be gone.
What though thou rulest not;
Yet heaven and earth and hell
Proclaim--God sitteth on the throne,
And ruleth all things well.
3 Leave to his sov-reign sway
To choose and to command;
So shalt thou, wond'ring, own his way,
How wise, how strong his hand!
Far, far above thy thought
His counsel shall appear,
When fully he the work hath wrought
That caused thy needless fear.
