He whose heart is kind beyond all measure Gives unto each day what He deems best– Lovingly, its part of pain and pleasure, Mingling toil with peace and rest. 2 Ev'ry day the Lord Himself is near me With a special mercy for each hour; All my cares He fain would bear, and cheer me, He whose name is Counselor and Pow'r. The protection of His child and treasure Is a charge that on Himself He laid; "As thy days, thy strength shall be in measure," This the pledge to me He made. 3 Help me then in ev'ry tribulation So to trust Thy promises, O Lord, That I lose not faith's sweet consolation Offered me within Thy holy word. Help me, Lord, when toil and trouble meeting, E'er to take, as from a father's hand, One by one, the days, the moments fleeting, Till I reach the promised land.

Sometimes a light surprises

Author: William Cowper, 1731-1800 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #547 (1917) Topics: The Christian Life Comfort and Sympathy; Trust, in God ; Providence Lyrics: 1 Sometimes a light surprises The Christian while he sings; It is the Lord who rises With healing in His wings. When comforts are declining, He grants the soul again A season of clear shining, To cheer it after rain. 2 In holy contemplation We sweetly then pursue The theme of God's salvation, And find it ever new: Set free from present sorrow, We cheerfully can say, Even let the unknown to-morrow Bring with it what it may, 3 It can bring with it nothing. But He will bear us through; Who gives the lilies clothing Will clothe His people too: Beneath the spreading heavens, No creature but is fed; And He who feeds the ravens, Will give His children bread. 4 Though vine nor fig-tree neither Their wonted fruit shall bear. Though all the field should wither, Nor flocks nor herds be there; Yet, God the same abiding, His praise shall tune my voice; For while in Him confiding, I cannot but rejoice.
