When God Leads
God shakes the nest
When He would have His eagles fly;
He knows what’s best,
He does not need to tell us why.
But trust we must
If we would know His peace divine,
And only say,
“Dear Lord, Thy will be mine.”
Secure and warm
And safe within our hallowed place,
We would not choose
To venture into unknown space;
But stepping forth
We know He’ll lead where we belong
And soon we’ll sing the victor’s glorious song.
Then trust His love,
Although the way ahead be dim,
He has a work
That only you can do for Him.
So keep your eyes
On Jesus, Listen for His voice,
And looking back
You’ll see how wise His choice.
