Resting in God

Author: fr. K. R. Hagenbach Appears in 42 hymnals First Line: Since thy Father's arm sustains thee Lyrics: 1 Since thy Father's arm sustains thee, Peaceful be; When a chastening hand restrains thee, It is he! Know his love in full completeness Fills the measure of thy weakness; If he wound thy spirit sore, Trust him more. 2 Without murmur, uncomplaining, In his hand Lay whatever things thou canst not Understand: Though the world thy folly spurneth, From thy faith in pity turneth, Peace thy inmost soul shall fill-- Lying still. 3 Fearest sometimes that thy Father Hath forgot? When the clouds around thee gather, Doubt him not! Always hath the daylight broken-- Always hath he comfort spoken-- Better hath he been for years, Than thy fears. 4 To his own thy Saviour giveth Daily strength; To each troubled soul that liveth Peace at length: Weakest lambs have largest sharing Of this tender Shepherd's caring; Ask him not, then--when or how-- Only bow.

Since Thy Father's Arm Sustains Thee

Hymnal: Hymns of Consecration and Faith #97 (1902) Lyrics: 1 Since thy Father’s arm sustains thee, Peaceful be, peaceful be; When a chastening hand restrains thee, It is He, it is He. Know His love in full completeness Fills the measure of thy weakness, If He wound thy spirit sore, Trust Him more, trust Him more. 2 Fearest sometimes that Thy Father Hath forgot? hath forgot? When the clouds around thee gather, Doubt Him not, doubt Him not; Always hath the daylight broken, Always hath he comfort spoken, Better hath He been for years, Than thy fears; than thy fears. 3 Without murmur, uncomplaining, Follow on, follow on, Saying, “Whatsoe’er God doth Is well done; is well done.” Bear today thy cross of sorrow, Wear thy crown of life tomorrow, Sing, while calmly trusting still, “‘Tis His will! ‘tis His will!” 4 To His own the Savior giveth Daily strength; daily strength; To each troubled soul that liveth, Peace at length; peace at length. Therefore, whatsoe’er betideth, Know His love for thee provideth: Do not question, “Why?” or “How?” Only bow, only bow. Languages: English Tune Title: [Since thy Father's arm sustains thee]
