The Lord Is Thy Keeper

by Lizzie De Armond

The Lord is thy keeper, O sad heart be still,
In quiet submission accept His dear will;
The trials that fret thee, the needless alarms
Can never disturb thee when safe in His arms.

The Lord is thy keeper; trust all to His love,
That shines in full glory from heaven above;
Be patient, be hopeful, nor falter nor fear,
In light and in darkness theSavior is near.

The Lord is thy keeper, O sing on the way,
His arm will uphold thee, His rod be thy stay;
Life's turbulent billows His hand will control,
The peace that He giveth brings rest to the soul.

Chorus

The Lord is thy keeper be still and obey;
His love shall enfold thee thro' life's little day;
The Lord is thy keeper, be glad and rejoice!
O praise Him forever with heart, soul and voice.
