Primary Scripture: Hebrews 7:25

Verse 1

God lives! can I despair, As if He were not mine? Is not my life His care? Is not His hand divine?

Chorus

God lives! there rest my soul; God hears! before Him bow; God sees! and can control; God leads! then follow thou.

Verse 2

God hears, when none will hear; My soul, art thou afraid? My sighs mount to His ear; Will He refuse His aid?

Chorus

God lives! there rest my soul; God hears! before Him bow; God sees! and can control; God leads! then follow thou.

Verse 3

God sees! my heart, be still! He knows thy deepest pain; The joy that once did thrill, The sorrows that remain.

Chorus

God lives! there rest my soul; God hears! before Him bow; God sees! and can control; God leads! then follow thou.

Verse 4

God leads! I follow on Thro’ paths that He will show; Tho’ daylight oft be gone, His guiding hand I know.

Chorus

God lives! there rest my soul; God hears! before Him bow; God sees! and can control; God leads! then follow thou.
