"In His Hands"

We know not what tomorrow brings although we plan ahead

For only God alone can know the pathway we must tread.

We cannot know the future - not one minute nor one hour -

Each circumstance that we must face lay only in His power.

It's vital that we live by faith from minute unto minute

And trusting that each step we take He's walking with us in it.

We cannot see the future nor the trials we must face

But in all things, God promised us sufficiency of grace.

This alone should give us hope whatever be our plans

In knowing that our future lies in His strong, loving hands.
