MY HAND IN GOD'S By Florence Scripps Kellogg

Each morning when I wake I say,

"I place my hand in God's today;"

I know He'll walk close by my side

My every wandering step to guide.



He leads me with the tenderest care

When paths are dark and I despair--

No need for me to understand

If I but hold fast to His hand.



My hand in His! No surer way

to walk in safety through each day.

By His great bounty I am fed;

Warmed by His love, and comforted.



When at day's end I seek my rest

And realize how much I'm blessed,

My thanks pour out to Him; and then

I place my hand in God's again.
