God moves in a mysterious way
His wonders to perform;
He plants His footsteps in the sea
And rides upon the storm.
Deep in his vast and hidden mind
With never-failing skill
He fashions all His bright designs
And works His sovereign will.
Oh God, we trust in you
Yes, God we trust in you
When fears are great and comforts few
We hope in mercies ever new
We trust in you.
Oh fearful saints, fresh courage take;
The clouds that you now dread
Are big with mercy and will break
With blessings on your head.
Judge not the Lord by feeble sense.
But trust Him for His grace;
Behind a frowning providence
He hides a smiling face.
His purposes will ripen fast,
Unfolding every hour;
The bud may have a bitter taste,
But sweet will be the flower.
Blind unbelief is sure to err
And scan His work in vain;
God is His own Interpreter,
And He will make it plain.
