Now That My Journey's Just Begun

Author: Jane Taylor Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11012 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Now that my journey’s just begun Lyrics: 1 Now that my journey’s just begun, My course so little trod, I’ll stay, before I further run, And give myself to God. 2 And, lest I should be ever led Through sinful paths to stray, I would at once begin to tread In wisdom’s pleasant way. 3 What sorrows may my steps attend, I cannot now foretell; But if the Lord will be my friend, I know that all is well. 4 If all my earthly friends should die, And leave me mourning here; Since God regards the orphan’s cry, O what have I to fear? 5 If I am rich, He’ll guard my heart, Temptation to withstand; And make me willing to impart The bounties of His hand. 6 If I am poor, He can supply Who has my table spread; Who feeds the ravens when they cry, And fills His poor with bread. 7 And, Lord, whatever grief or ill For me may be in store, Make me submissive to Thy will, And I would ask no more. 8 Attend me through my youthful way, Whatever be my lot; And when I’m feeble, old, and gray, O Lord, forsake me not. 9 Then still, as seasons hasten by, I will for Heav’n prepare; That God may take me when I die, To dwell forever there.

Trusting God

Author: W. Smith Hymnal: Boundless Love #91 (1896) First Line: Now that my journey’s just begun Lyrics: 1 Now that my journey’s just begun; My course so little trod— I’ll stay before I further go, And give myself to God: What sorrows may my steps attend, I cannot now foretell; But if the Lord will be my friend, I know that all is well. 2 If all my earthly friends should die, And leave me mourning here— Since God regards the orphan’s cry— Oh! what have I to fear? If I am poor He can supply— Who hath my table spread; He feeds the ravens when they cry, And fills His poor with bread. 3 And Lord, whatever grief or ill For me may be in store, Make me submissive to Thy will, And I would ask no more; And all the way be Thou my stay, Whatever be my lot, And when I’m feeble, old and gray, Oh! God, forsake me not. Languages: English Tune Title: [Now that my journey’s just begun]
