Alone with none but thee, my God
I journey on my way
What need I fear when thou art near
O King of night and day?
More safe am I within thy hand
Than if a host didst round me stand
The child of God can fear no ill
His chosen dread no foe...
...'Tis not from chance our comfort springs
Thou art our trust, O King of kings
My destined time is known to thee
And d**h doth know his hour;
Did warriors strong around me throng
They could not stay his power:
No walls of stone can man defend
When thou thy messenger doth send
The child of God can fear no ill
His chosen dread no foe...
...'Tis not from chance our comfort springs
Thou art our trust, O King of kings
My life I yield to thy decree
And bow to thy control
In peaceful calm, for from thine arm
No power can wrest my soul
Could earthly omens e'er appall
A man that heeds the heavenly call?
The child of God can fear no ill
His chosen dread no foe...
...'Tis not from chance our comfort springs
Thou art our trust, O King of kings
