“My times are in thy hand,”

My God, I’d have them there;

My life, my friends, my soul I leave

Entirely to thy care.

2 “My times are in thy hand,”

Whatever they may be;

Pleasing or painful, dark or bright,

As best may seem to thee.

3 “My times are in thy hand,”

Why should I doubt or fear?

My Father’s hand will never cause

His child a needless tear.
