My spirit on Thy care, Blest Savior, I recline; Thou wilt not leave me to despair, For Thou art love divine. | In Thee I place my trust, On Thee I calmly rest; I know Thee good, I know Thee just, And count thy choice the best. | Whate'er events betide, Thy will they all perform: Safe in Thy breast my head I hide, Nor fear the coming storm. | Let good or ill befall, It must be good for me; Secure in having Thee in all, Of having all in Thee. | |
