through deep waters

🎶
When I through waters go,
They will not overflow;
Safely and wisely Thou guidest my way.
Through fire Thou leadest me;
My flesh consumed must be.
Help me to see this and follow, I pray.

If we do not draw back from suff’ring,
Then in God’s glory we’ll partake.
Don’t look behind you; don’t stop going —
/: Such in God’s kingdom have no stake. :/
6.
Though we must pass through many waters,
We will not perish in the surge.
When we through fiery trials are taken,
/: We’ll with no smell of smoke emerge. :/

When I no help or escape can see,
That’s when I know Your great love for me.

🎶
Our own sin is what will shame us;
Blaming others will not do.
Their mistakes that press, inflame us
Show we have their nature too.

‚Tis our gain when folks mistreat us
If our hearts are always pure.
Don’t surmise about the others;
Hidden things are God’s domain.
Judge yourself and not your brothers.
Transformation you’ll attain.

Ways of the Lord, 229

🎶
Thanks for each trial and cross that You’ve given;
Thanks for each fire You’ve ignited, Lord in heaven.
Thanks that through darkness and shadows of night
You’ve led me with wisdom to much clearer light.
