Unprofitable All And Vain,
Away This Soul-Distracting Care!
I Cannot Lengthen Out My Span,
I Cannot Change A Single Hair;
Then Let Me Hang Upon His Word
Who Keeps His Saints In Perfect Peace,
My Burden Cast Upon The Lord,
And Only Care My God To Please.
Who Stoops To Clothe A Fading Flower
Will Every Needful Blessing Give,
And Fit The Creature Of An Hour
An Endless Life With Him To Live.
My Father Knows The Things I Need,
My Father Knows, Let That Suffice,
I Trust Him Now To Clothe And Feed
His Child Who On His Care Relies.
The Cause Of My Misgiving Fear,
Lord, I My Unbelief Confess;
Author Of Faith In Me Appear,
And Bid My Doubts And Terrors Cease!
