God Holds the Future in His Hands

Author: James Rowe Appears in 26 hymnals Topics: Encouragement First Line: Dread not the things that are ahead Lyrics: 1 Dread not the things that are ahead, The burdens great, the sinking sands, The thorns that o'er the path are spread, God holds the future in His hands. Chorus: God holds the future in His hands, (His blessed hands,) And ev'ry heart He understands; On Him depend; He is your Friend; He holds the future in His hands. 2 We know not what tomorrow hides, Of sun or storm, of good or ill; We only know His dear hand guides, And He will be our Father still. [Chorus] 3 His hand created earth and sky, The zephyrs and the storms that rage, And years to come and years gone by To Him are but an open page. [Chorus] 4 Live close to Him and trust His love, Assured that while on earth we roam, Whate'er may come, He bends above To guide His children safely home. [Chorus] Scripture: James 4:13-15 Used With Tune: [Dread not the things that are ahead]
