In the Hollow of His Hand

Verse 1

Our God hath given promise- And His grace for this hath planned; His child shall rest securely In the hollow of His hand.

Chorus

Let come what may--or wave, or tempest-- "Peace, be still!" tis His command; My soul is held in peace eternal In the hollow of His hand.

Verse 2

O soul, be thou not troubled, Tho' thou dost now understand; No turmoil shall molest thee In the hollow of His hand.

Verse 3

E'en tho' stern duty call thee, And each day make full demand, The soul may find its shelter In the hollow of His hand.

Verse 4

The joy that passeth knowledge, Peace that none can understand, For thee, for thee are waiting In the hollow of His hand.
