Hymn 335 - "Lord, Thy ways are past our searching,"

Lord, Thy ways are past our searching,

Infinite Thy holy mind!

Thou dost break earth's links asunder,

To Thyself our souls dost bind.

By the cords of love Thou drawest

Each blest object of Thy grace;

Thou wilt daily keep us near Thee,

Till in heav'n we see Thy face.

 Many foes surround our footsteps;

None shall mar our joy in Thee!

Soon will change earth's toil and sorrow

For a bright eternity.

 We would trust Thee without seeing,

Knowing that Thy way is best;

Dark or bright, in Thee confiding,

Shall our hearts find peace and rest.
