Lyrics
[Verse 1]
All things, every single one,
Are under God’s control.
He works them all for good,
For those who love His goal.
[Chorus]
All things rest in Your hands, O Lord, Your purpose stands secure;
In every joy and trial of life, Your steadfast love endures.
[Verse 2]
There is no chance or luck,
No accident or fate.
All things are planned by God,
It’s His will that we await.
[Chorus]
All things rest in Your hands, O Lord, Your purpose stands secure;
In every joy and trial of life, Your steadfast love endures.
[Verse 3]
He uses all things for His glory,
And for our good as well.
He’s working to conform us,
To the image of Christ to dwell.
[Verse 4]
So let us trust in His purpose,
In all that comes our way.
For He is good and sovereign,
And His love will never stray.
[Chorus]
All things rest in Your hands, O Lord, Your purpose stands secure;
In every joy and trial of life, Your steadfast love endures.
[Verse 5]
He’s given us all things,
To use for His great fame.
Let us seek to glorify Him,
In all that we do and say.
[Verse 6]
For all things are for our sake,
To bring us to His side.
Let us rest in His promise,
And in His love abide.
[Chorus x3]
All things rest in Your hands, O Lord, Your purpose stands secure;
In every joy and trial of life, Your steadfast love endures.
