Each morning when I wake I say,
"I place my hand in God's today";
I know God will walk close by my side
My every wandering step to guide.
God leads me with the tenderest care
When paths are dark and I despair –
No need for me to understand
If I but hold fast to God's hand.
My hand in God's! No surer way
To walk in safety through each day.
By God's great bounty I am fed;
Warmed by God's love, and comforted.
When at day’s end I seek by rest
And realize how much
I'm blessed,
My thanks pour out to God;
and then I place my hand in God's again.
