Or lifted up my sinking head!

2 In all my ways Thy hand I own,

Thy ruling providence I see:

Assist me still my course to run,

And still direct my paths to Thee.

3 Whither, oh whither should I fly,

But to my loving Father’s breast;

Secure within Thine arms to lie,

And safe beneath Thy wings to rest!

4 I have no skill the snare to shun,
