I place myself in Jesus’ hands, and there I’d stay forever
No grief, nor joy shall loose these bands, nor this our union sever
Were all the world to chaos hurled, He’d keep us securely ever
However He may deal with me, what e’re He wills shall please me
By faith His will, my will shall be; I know that He will bless me
Whatever He may will shall be, and His care will e’re possess me
In midst of life’s most trying woes, I joy in His care ever
I know whatever ways He goes, they’re wondrous ways forever
What ill may seem, He well doth mean; my enemy He’s never been
What ill may seem, He well doth mean; in love He chastens ever
And thus my faith secure shall stand, upon this promise ever
No one shall pluck me from His hand, not here nor ever after
For what He spake, He will not break; He is my trust that none can shake
For what He spake, He will not break; His name I’ll praise forever
