Why should I doubt my Father’s love,
Or disbelieve his grace;
His pity he will not remove,
Although he hides his face.
How oft has he, when full of pain,
My drooping spirit cheered;
And will not God appear again,
Where once he has appeared?
Has he not formed my soul anew,
And told me I was his;
And will he now his work forego,
Or break his promises?
Will he repent, or e’er deny
The gifts he once bestowed;
Or are those streams of mercy dry,
Which then so freely flowed?
No more shall groundless fear destroy
The pace which God has given;
Still numerous blessings I enjoy,
And hope for more in heaven.
