Through various deaths my soul hath led,
Or turn'd aside the fatal hour,
Or lifted up my sinking head!
2 In all my ways Thy hand I own,
Thy ruling providence I see:
Assist me still my course to run,
And still direct my paths to Thee.
3 Whither, oh, whither should I fly,
But to my loving Saviour's breast;
Secure within Thine arms to lie,
And safe beneath Thy wings to rest?
4 I have no skill the snare to shun,
But Thou, O Christ! my Wisdom art:
I ever into ruin run,
But Thou art greater than my heart.
5 Foolish, and impotent, and blind,
Lead me a way I have not known;
Bring me where I my heaven may find,
The heaven of loving Thee alone.
6 Enlarge my heart to make Thee room;
Enter, and in me ever stay:
The crooked then shall straight become,
The darkness shall be lost in day. Languages: English

To blessedness with Thee!

Let all my wanderings cease;
Call from the wayside lodging
To the sweet home of peace!

To guide my doubting footsteps,
To be my strength and stay.

Then I can smile at Satan’s rage,
And face a frowning world.

And storms of sorrow fall,
May I but safely reach my home,
My God, my heaven, my all.
4 There shall I bathe my weary soul
In seas of heavenly rest;
And not a wave of trouble roll
Across my peaceful breast.

And number'd every secret tear,
And heaven's long age of bliss shall pay
For all His children suffer here. Languages: English
