TO EVERYTHING THERE IS A TIME
Tune: "There Is a Fountain Filled with Blood." CMD
"To everything," the prophet said,
"Appointed is a time;
"A season set for every deed,
"God's purpose has designed."
Our lives are like a tapestry,
With threads both dark and light.
God weaves them, and so, beautifully,
They shine in His own time.
Our lives have times of pleasantness,
And tribulation too;
In both, God's all sufficient grace,
Is there to see us through.
Ne'er shall the Lord forsake His saints,
His sheep He'll never leave.
And this is true when Providence,
Has made us laugh or grieve.
Sometimes with holy confidence,
Our eyes look up to God.
In other times our hearts are weak,
Beneath the sinful load.
But the same blood that makes us bold,
T'approach God's gracious throne;
Is strong to plead when we are weak,
And seal us as God's own.
Thus, in all things, our lot is cast,
In places pleasant, blest;
In balmy breeze or stormy blast,
God gives us what is best
Lord give us eyes of holy faith,
That clearly we may see;
That you do things, not only well,
But do them perfectly!
