God’s “No” Means “Something Better”
God’s “no” means “something better”–
I can trust Him with my all.
The God who formed the Universe
Attendeth when I call;
And when in love and wisdom
He withholds my heart’s request,
His “no” means “something better”–
He will give me what is best.
God’s “wait a while’s” bring blessings
That His “right away’s” withhold.
When He’s tried me in the fire
I shall then come forth as gold.
O what peace it brings in sorrow,
And what comfort fills my breast
Just to know, whate’er His answer,
He will give me what is best.
