God Plans the Best for Me

lyricist: Lizzie DeArmond, 1929
Composer: Kieffer Vaughan

I can­not tell

I do not know

What in the fu­ture days may be;

If joy or pain my lot be­low

God plans the ve­ry best for me.

God plans the best

He cares for me;

In ev­ery­thing His love I see;

God plans the best

what­e’er be­fall

I’m safe with Him who knows it all.

The pre­sent time is all I own

If trou­bles come

my Lord is there;

I do not bear them all alone—

He lifts my heart ab­ove des­pair.

So on my way I joy­ful sing—

His hand div­ine is hold­ing me;

Whate’er the com­ing years may bring

God plans the ve­ry best for me.
