I Feel the Winds of God

Author: Jessie Adams Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 27 hymnals Topics: Challenge First Line: I feel the winds of God today Lyrics: 1 I feel the winds of God today; today my sail I lift, though heavy oft with drenching spray and torn with many a rift; if hope but light the water’s crest, and Christ my bark will use, I’ll seek the seas at his behest, and brave another cruise. 2 It is the wind of God that dries my vain regretful tears, until with braver thoughts shall rise the purer, brighter years; if cast on shores of selfish ease or pleasure I should be, O let me feel your freshening breeze, and I’ll put back to sea. 3 If ever I forget your love and how that love was shown, lift high the blood-red flag above; it bears your name alone. Great pilot of my onward way, you will not let me drift; I feel the winds of God today, today my sail I lift. Used With Tune: KINGSFOLD
