If thou but suffer God to guide thee

Author: Catherine Winkworth; Georg Neumark Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Appears in 179 hymnals Topics: Trust and Confidence Lyrics: 1 If thou but suffer God to guide thee, And hope in Him through all thy ways, He'll give thee strength, whate'er betide thee, And bear thee through the evil days; Who trusts in God's unchanging love Builds on the rock that naught can move. 2 Only be still, and wait His leisure In cheerful hope, with heart content To take whate'er thy Father's pleasure And all-discerning love hath sent; Nor doubt our inmost wants are known To Him who chose us for His own. 3 Sing, pray, and swerve not from His ways, But do thine own part faithfully; Trust His rich promises of grace, So shall they be fulfilled in thee; God never yet forsook at need The soul that trusted Him indeed. Amen. Used With Tune: NEUMARK
