My times are in thy hand Psalm XXX. 13 (?) Sovereign ruler of the skies Ever gracious, ever wise; All my times are in Thy hand, All events at Thy command. Times of sickness, times of health, Times of penury and wealth; Times of trial and of grief, Times of triumph and relief. Times the tempter's power to prove, Times to taste a Saviour's love; All must come, at last, and end, As shall please my heavenly Friend. Plagues and death around me fly, Till He bids I cannot die; Not a single shaft can hit, Till the God of love sees fit. John Ryland |
