Verse 1
The mighty God, Omniscient One!
His ways we cannot trace.
He reckons ev'ry good begun
And crowns it with His grace.
His ways we cannot trace.
He reckons ev'ry good begun
And crowns it with His grace.
Verse 2
Lo! I can see Him in His word—
I will not doubt or fear;
My steps are ordered of the Lord,
His guiding hand is near.
I will not doubt or fear;
My steps are ordered of the Lord,
His guiding hand is near.
Verse 3
No trial can my spirit break,
For God will not forsake;
He will with each temptation make
A way for my escape.
For God will not forsake;
He will with each temptation make
A way for my escape.
Verse 4
The future beckons and I bow—
My God removes the care!
Behold, He goes before me now,
And will my way prepare.
My God removes the care!
Behold, He goes before me now,
And will my way prepare.
Refrain
He's here, and there, and ev'rywhere
In all the ways I've trod.
I've never passed beyond the sphere
of the providence of God.
In all the ways I've trod.
I've never passed beyond the sphere
of the providence of God.
