What tho’ the way be lone­ly,
And dark the sha­dows fall;
I know wher­ev­er it lead­eth,
My Fa­ther planned it all.

Refrain

I sing through shade and sun­shine,
And trust what­ev­er be­fall;
His way is best—it leads to rest;
My Fa­ther planned it all.

The sun may shine to­mor­row,
The sha­dows break and flee;
’Twill be the way He choos­es,
The Fa­ther’s plan for me.

Refrain

He guides my halt­ing foot­steps
Along the wea­ry way,
For well He knows the path­way
Will lead to end­less day.

Refrain

A day of light and glad­ness,
On which no shade will fall,
’Tis this at last awaits me—
My Fa­ther planned it all.
