Lyrics
Dread not the things that are ahead
The burdens great, the sinking sands
The thorns that o'er the path are spread
God holds the future in His hands
God holds the future in His hands
And every heart He understands (He understands)
On Him depend (on Him depend)
He is your Friend (He is your Friend)
He holds the future in His hands
We know not what tomorrow hides
Of sun or storm or good or ill
We only know His dear hand guides
And He will be our Father still
God holds the future in His hands
And every heart He understands (He understands)
On Him depend (on Him depend)
He is your Friend (He is your Friend)
He holds the future in His hands
His hand created Earth and sky
The zephyrs and the storms that rage
And years to come and years gone by
To Him are but an open page
God holds the future in His hands
And every heart He understands (He understands)
On Him depend (on Him depend)
He is your Friend (He is your Friend)
He holds the future in His hands
Live close to Him and trust His love
Assured that while on earth we roam
Whate'er may come, He bends above
To guide His children safely home
God holds the future in His hands
And every heart He understands (He understands)
On Him depend (on Him depend)
He is your Friend (He is your Friend)
He holds the future in His hands
