SAFE IN GOD'S HAND

Hi everyone, I know it's been a while, but this gem of a poem was definitely worth waiting for:

*

Each morning when I wake, I say,  
"I place my hand in God's today."  
With faith and trust that by my side  
He'll walk with me my steps to guide.

He leads me on with tender care,  
When paths are dark and I despair.  
No need for me to understand 
If I hold fast to His great 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 realise how much I'm blest,  
My thanks pour out to Him - and then 
 I place my hand in God's again.

Anon - regrettably
