【All My Life is in His Hand】

Whatever befalls me, how and when, by my Lord is so wondrously planned;

Thro’s life’s rugged roads He carries me onward with His loving hand.

Doubts and fears come time and time again,

What’s ahead though I can’t understand;

The Lord says , ‘My grace is sufficient for you.’

All my life is in His hand.

His banner over you is conquer’ng love,

He bought you with His blood to be His own;

His heart belongs to you. He will never leave you alone;

If you are just the clay, He’s the potter who molds your life to shine brightly as fire.

That you’re one heart with Him and walk with Him —‘Tis His desire.

2 For tomorrow I don’t need to care, for I trust in His promise so fair;

Casting all upon my Almighty Father, no burden I bear.

Wait only for God, O my soul, my heart, be quiet and composed,

He will guide you how to walk upon this road,

Grant your wishes and make you whole.

He promises to mold you - He’ll not forget, to be with you always - He’ll not regret,

He promises to take you to that fair land of joy and rest!

Be steadfast to march on, redeem the time,

Grasp today’s precious chance, give your entire.

That you’re one heart with Him and walk with Him - ‘Tis His desire.

3 Comes the journey better than before, the pa th of the just shines more and more;

My dear Lord will surely lead me to the shore. My soul He’ll restore.

Let my heart rejoice for You always, in all things give thanks and trust with faith,

Let my heart follow You closely everyday, for Your coming I’ll watch and wait.

(O come quickly that happy day.)

【Genesis 31:3, 5, 11, 38-42】

3 Then the LORD said to Jacob, "Return to the land of your fathers and to your kindred, and I will be with you."

5 and said to them, "I see that your father does not regard me with favor as he did before. But the God of my father has been with me.

11 Then the angel of God said to me in the dream, 'Jacob,' and I said, 'Here I am!'

38 These twenty years I have been with you. Your ewes and your female goats have not miscarried, and I have not eaten the rams of your flocks.

39 What was torn by wild beasts I did not bring to you. I bore the loss of it myself. From my hand you required it, whether stolen by day or stolen by night.

40 There I was: by day the heat consumed me, and the cold by night, and my sleep fled from my eyes.

41 These twenty years I have been in your house. I served you fourteen years for your two daughters, and six years for your flock, and you have changed my wages ten times.

42 If the God of my father, the God of Abraham and the Fear of Isaac, had not been on my side, surely now you would have sent me away empty-handed. God saw my affliction and the labor of my hands and rebuked you last night."
