Hymn 568: Precious thought my Father knoweth

Precious thought-----my Father knoweth ! In His love I rest ; For whate'er my Father doeth Must be always best ; Well I know the heart that planneth Naught but good for me ; Joy and sorrow interwoven, Love in all I see.

2. Precious thought----my Father knoweth ! Careth for His child ; Bids me nestle closer to Him, When the storms beat wild; Though my earthly hopes are shattered, And the teardrops fall, Yet He is Himself my solace, Yea, my " all in all."

3. Oh to trust Him then more fully ! Just to simply move In the conscious calm enjoyment Of the Father's love ; [way Knowing that life's chequered path- Leadeth to His rest ; Satisfied the way He taketh Must be always best.
