Lyrics
The God who ruleth nations
With wise consideration,
Whose very name is Love.
His love to us He proveth,
To Him alone behooveth
Good gifts to send us from above.
We are in childlike order;
God has become our Father
Thro' Jesus Christ, our Lord;
He hears His children crying
And ne'er was known denying
The promise given in His word.
If we in faith show weakness,
Like doves we call in meekness;
It soon attracts His eye;
He never stands asunder,
But in His love so tender
He hears When children to Him cry.
I often say: My Father,
Thy counsel I will gather;
Where else should I resort?
In ev'ry difficulty
I will appear before Thee,
For Thou my loving Father art.
Be Thou my God forever.
Nothing from Thee can sever;
I beg: Protect Thou me!
Confer on me Thy blessings,
Thy help and love expressing;
I plead: Oh, Father, help Thou me!
As Jacob in his wrestling
Besought Thee for a blessing,
Ere he would let Thee part,
So I embrace Thee ever;
Thou canst forsake me never,
For tender is Thy Father-heart!
Ye cares, no longer tarry!
No gentleness you carry,
For you are stern and hard;
Go now unto the Father;
He is my Counselor rather,
Arise, my soul, unto Thy Lord!
With wise consideration,
Whose very name is Love.
His love to us He proveth,
To Him alone behooveth
Good gifts to send us from above.
We are in childlike order;
God has become our Father
Thro' Jesus Christ, our Lord;
He hears His children crying
And ne'er was known denying
The promise given in His word.
If we in faith show weakness,
Like doves we call in meekness;
It soon attracts His eye;
He never stands asunder,
But in His love so tender
He hears When children to Him cry.
I often say: My Father,
Thy counsel I will gather;
Where else should I resort?
In ev'ry difficulty
I will appear before Thee,
For Thou my loving Father art.
Be Thou my God forever.
Nothing from Thee can sever;
I beg: Protect Thou me!
Confer on me Thy blessings,
Thy help and love expressing;
I plead: Oh, Father, help Thou me!
As Jacob in his wrestling
Besought Thee for a blessing,
Ere he would let Thee part,
So I embrace Thee ever;
Thou canst forsake me never,
For tender is Thy Father-heart!
Ye cares, no longer tarry!
No gentleness you carry,
For you are stern and hard;
Go now unto the Father;
He is my Counselor rather,
Arise, my soul, unto Thy Lord!
