He is my God; Though dark my road, He holds me that I shall not fall; Wherefore to him I leave it all. 2 Whate’er our God ordains is right; He never will deceive me; He leads me by the proper path; I know he will not leave me, I take, content, What he hath sent; His hand can turn my griefs away, And patiently I wait his day. 3 Whate’er our God ordains is right; Though now this cup, in drinking, May bitter seem to my faint heart, I take it, all unshrinking; Tears pass away With dawn of day; Sweet comfort yet shall fill my heart, And pain and sorrow shall depart. 4 Whate’er our God ordains is right; Here shall my stand be taken; Though sorrow, need, or death be mine, Yet am I not forsaken; My Father’s care Is round me there; He holds me that I shall not fall, And so to Him I leave it all.

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Appears in 2,017 hymnals Topics: The Life In Christ Contemplation; The Life In Christ Consecration Lyrics: 1 When I survey the wondrous Cross On which the Prince of Glory died, My richest gain I count but loss And pour contempt on all my pride. 2 Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast Save in the death of Christ, my God; All the vain things that charm me most, I sacrifice them to his Blood. 3 See, from his head, his hands, his feet, Sorrow and love flow mingled down; Did e’er such love and sorrow meet, Or thorns compose so rich a crown? 4 Were the whole realm of nature mine, That were a present far too small; Love so amazing, so divine, Demands my soul, my life, my all. Amen. Used With Tune: HAMBURG (BOSTON)
