My hand in His, I will not fear, How fierce may be the storm; I’m sheltered in His love each day, And kept from all alarm.

Resting, resting, Resting in God’s sweet peace; Resting, resting, I’m resting in God’s sweet peace.

Verse 4

He drives my ev’ry doubt away, He gives me childlike faith; And so I take the yea or nay, Just as my Father saith.
