The burdens great, the sinking sands,
The thorns that o’er the path are spread,

Chorus:
God holds the future in His hands,
And ev'ry heart He understands;
On Him depend; He is your Friend;
He holds the future in His hands.

Of sun or storm, or 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] Languages: English Tune Title: [Dread not the things that are ahead]
