ALL THINGS TOGETHER WORK FOR GOD

Don Fortner

 

All things together work for good

By God's all wise design

To those who love their sovereign Lord,

The called by grace Divine-

The called by grace Divine.

My God, before the world was made,

Predestinated all,

And nothing happens in this world

Beyond my God's control-

Beyond my God's control.

 

He chose me in etemal love,

Redeemed me by His blood,

He called me and He gave me life

And He will do me good-

And He will do me good.

 

My God, I trust Your providence,

Your will, not mine, be done:

Content, I wait to see Your grace,

And bow before Your throne-

And bow before Your throne.

 

My life, my all, I now resign

To You, my Lord and God,

Nothing I ask or seek except

The glory of my God-

The glory of my God.

 

(Tune: Majestic Sweetness)
