Whatever in the future lies,
My God shall choose the best;
His loving kindness compassing—
To Him I leave the rest.
I do not know, cannot tell,
What God’s love may prepare;
I only know I cannot get
Beyond my Father’s care.
Choose Thou for me; I do not ask
To see and know my way;
If I am His, then He is mine—
My Comfort and my Stay.
