God moves in a mysterious way
His wonders to perform;
He plants His footsteps in the sea
And rides upon the storm.<\/p>\n

Deep in unfathomable mines
Of never failing skill
He treasures up His bright designs
And works His sovereign will.<\/p>\n

Ye fearful saints, fresh courage take;
The clouds ye so much dread
Are big with mercy and shall break
In blessings on your head.<\/p>\n

Judge not the Lord by feeble sense,
But trust Him for His grace;
Behind a frowning providence
He hides a smiling face.<\/p>\n

His purposes will ripen fast,
Unfolding every hour;
The bud may have a bitter taste,
But sweet will be the flower.<\/p>\n

Blind unbelief is sure to err
And scan His work in vain;
God is His own interpreter,
And He will make it plain.<\/p>\n
