A GERMAN Trust Song.

Just as God leads me, would go;
would not ask to choose my way;
Content with what He Will bestow,
Assured lie will not let mo stray.
So MS Ho leads, my path make,
And stop by step gladly take,
child In Him confidinG.
Just as God loads am content;
l rest mo calmly in his hands;
That which He has decreed and sent--
That which His Will for me commands.
1 would that He should all fullnl,
That should do His gracious Will,
In living or in dying.
just as God leads, l all resign:
l trustTle TO my Fathers Will;
When reasons rays deceptive shine,
His council would yet fulfil;
That which His love ordained as right,
Before He brought me TO the light,
Ny ell to Him reslgning,
Just as God leads me, abide,
In faith, in hope, In suffering true;
Ills strength is ever by my side
Can aught my hold on him undo?
/ hold me firm I'm patience knowing
That God my life is still bestowlng--
Tho best in kindness sending,
Just as God leads, l onward so,
Oft amid thOrns and brlars seen;
God does not yet His guidance show
But in the end II shall be sGen
How, by a loving Fathers Will,
Faithful and true, He leads me still.
