Through waves and clouds and storms he gently clears your way; wait for his time, so shall the night soon end in joyous day. 3 Still heavy is your heart? Still sink your spirits down? Cast off the weight, let fear depart, and every care be gone.

Leave to his sovereign sway to choose and to command; with wonder filled, you then hall own how wise, how strong his hand. Scripture: Psalm 37:5 Used With Tune: DIADEMATA
