| 1. Through waves,
through clouds and storms,
God gently clears the way;
We wait His time; so shall the night
Soon end in blissful day.
2. He everywhere hath sway,
And all things serve His might;
His every act pure blessing is,
His path unsullied light.
3. When He makes bare His arm,
Who shall His work withstand?
When He His
people's cause defends,
Who then shall stay His hand?
4. We leave it to Himself
To choose and to command,
With wonder filled,
we soon shall see
How wise, how strong His hand.
5. We comprehend Him not,
Yet earth and heaven tell
God sits as sovereign
on the throne,
And ruleth all things well.
