IN heavenly love abiding, No change my heart shall fear; And safe is such confiding, For nothing changes here; The storm may roar without me, My heart may low be laid, But God is round about me, And can I be dismayed?
Wherever He may guide me, No want shall turn me back; My Shepherd is beside me, And nothing can I lack: His wisdom ever waketh, His sight is never dim, He knows the way He taketh, And I will walk with Him.
Green pastures are before me, Which yet I have not seen; Bright skies will soon be o’er me, Where the dark clouds have been: My hope I cannot measure, My path to life is free, My Saviour has my treasure, And He will walk with me.
Anna Letitia Waring, 1820-1910
