Refrain: God’s way is the best way, God’s way is the right way, I’ll trust in Him alway, He knoweth the best. 2 God’s way is the best way, my path He has planned, I’ll trust in Him alway while holding His hand; In shadows or sunshine He ever is near, With Him for my refuge, I never need fear. [Refrain] 3 God’s way shall be my way, He knoweth the best; And leaning upon Him, sweet, sweet is my rest, No harm can befall me, safe, safe shall I be, I’ll cling to Him ever, so precious is He. [Refrain]
