Alderman Trust Song.

~ Alderman Trust Song.
Just as God leads me 1 would go;
would not ask to choose my way,
Content with what he will bestow,
Assured he will not let me stray,
So as he leads my path make.
And step by step gladly take,
A child in him coniiding,
Jusl as God leads me am content;
To rest me calmly in his hands;
That which he has decreed and sent,
That which his will for me commands.
would that he should all fulfill
That should do his gracious will
In living or In dying. ..
Just as God leads will resign;
trust me to my fathers will;
When reasons rays deceptive shine.
His counsel would yet fulfil
That which his love ordained as right
Before he brought me to the light
My all to him reSigning.
just as God leads me abide:
In faith, in hope, in suffering true,
His strength is ever by my side;
Can ought ON Him my hold undo?
1 hold me firm in patience, knowing
That God my life is still beStowing,
The best in kindness sending.
Just as God leads 1 onward go; ..-
Oft amid thornS and briers seen,
God does not yet his guidance show,
But in the end 1t shall be seen
How, by a loving Fathers will.
Faithful and true he leads me still.
