Give to the winds your fears,
Hope and be undismayed,
God hears your sighs and counts your tears,
God shall lift up your head.
Why, heart, so heavy still?
Why, spirit, so cast down?
Bring every anxious thought to God,
bid every fear be gone.
Leave to his sovereign sway
To choose and to command,
though wondering, you will own god's way;
How wise, how strong his hand!
Let us in life, in death,
your steadfast love declare,
And publish with our latest breath
your love and guardian care.
