| Thy Ways |
| “As for God, His way is perfect” (Psalm 18:30). |
| “Shew me Thy ways, O Lord; teach me Thy paths” (Psalm 25:4). |
| Thy ways are right and perfect, |
| Though oft we credit not: |
| We think that we are wiser, |
| That we are better taught: |
| But God, our thoughts are feeble, |
| We know not what to choose, |
| And if we plan our own way, |
| We then the blessing lose. |
| Delays, they often frustrate — |
| Denials baffle too; |
| We cannot always reckon, |
| We do not always view |
| The plan, the purposed pattern, |
| Our Father has in mind: |
| But we can rest in knowing, |
| Thy ways are best and kind. |
