He Careth for Me (Lewis)

lyricist: Etta Lewis, 1886
Composer: Charles Prior

He careth for me

my Fa­ther cares!

Oh

sweet­est thought to my spir­it known;

I have no fears for the com­ing years

He nev­er for­sakes me nor leaves His own.

He careth for me—my morn­ing hymn;

He car­eth for me—my ev­en­ing psalm;

By day and by night

in gloom

in light

Beneath is the ev­er­last­ing arm.

He car­eth for me—I take no care;

I trust in Him who will guard and guide—

It is enough when the road is rough

To know my Sav­ior is by my side.

He careth for me

my Fa­ther cares!

My heart is sing­ing a grate­ful song;

I look above as I sing His love

To cheer the jour­ney that seems so long.

He car­eth for me; this wea­ry road

The saf­est is for my feet to tread;

In paths of bliss I might some­times miss

The bea­con light from the gates ahead.
