Hymns using same tune:

#493, #945

 
 1 

The Lord will silently plan for thee,

Thou object of omniscient care;

God undertakes Himself to be

Thy Pilot through each subtle snare.

 
 2 

The Lord will silently plan for thee,

So certainly, He cannot fail!

Rest on the faithfulness of God,

In Him thou surely shalt prevail.

 
 3 

The Lord will silently plan for thee,

Some wonderful surprise of love.

Eye hath not seen, nor ear hath heard,

But it is kept for thee to prove.

 
 4 

The Lord will silently plan for thee,

His purpose He'll to thee unfold;

The tangled skein shall shine at last,

A masterpiece of skill untold.

 
 5 

The Lord will silently plan for thee,

A happy child kept in His care

As though no other claimed His love,

But thou alone to Him wert dear.
