Lyrics
Verse 1
Give to the winds thy fears;
Hope, and be undismayed;
God hears thy sighs and counts thy tears,
God shall lift up thy head.
Verse 2
Through waves and clouds and storms
He gently clears the way;
Wait thou His time, so shall this night
Soon end in joyous day.
Verse 3
Still heavy is thy heart?
Still sink thy spirits down?
Cast off the weight, let fear depart,
And every care be gone.
Verse 4
Far, far above thy thought
His counsel shall appear,
When fully He the work hath wrought,
That caused thy needless fear.
Verse 5
Leave to His sovereign sway
To choose and to command;
So shalt thou, wondering, own His way,
How wise, how strong His hand.
Verse 6
Thou seest our weakness, Lord;
Our hearts are known to Thee:
O lift Thou up the sinking hand,
Confirm the feeble knee.
Verse 7
Let us, in life, in death,
Thy steadfast truth declare,
And publish with our latest breath
Thy love and guardian care.
