1. Sovereign Ruler of the skies
Ever gracious, ever wise
All my times are in Your hand
All events at Your command
His decree, who formed the earth
Fixed my first and second birth
Now my life Him to owe
Where He leads me I will go
CHORUS: Ever faithful ever true
Keep my heart to only
You Since I cannot part from Thee
Sovereign Ruler ever be
2. Plagues and deaths around me fly
Till He bids, I cannot die
Not a single shaft can hit
Till the God of love thinks fit
Times the tempter's power to prove
Times to taste a Savior's love
All must come, and last and end
As shall please my heavenly Friend
3. He that formed me in the womb
He shall guide me to the tomb
All my times shall ever be
Ordered by His wise decree
