Higher Hands Are Leading Me

Though it seems I'm oft unnoticed,
and lost in time and space.
God above is watching o'er me,
though I cannot see His face.

Chorus:
Higher hands are leading me,
higher hands are leading me.
I am not alone, I know;
As I walk this world below,
for higher hands are leading me.

O how sweet to know He hears me,
when I go to Him in pray'r.
And I tell Him all my troubles,
when my heart is bowed with care.

All my times are in His keeping,
He has numbered all my years.
And some day He'll take me yonder,
where there'll be no pain or tears.

There's a great eternal purpose
in the life of everyone.
And someday we'll know it's meaning,
when our days on Earth are done.

So I face an unknown future,
full of faith and unafraid.
And the peace I have through trusting,
for the world I would not trade.
