460. Be Not Dismayed (God Will Take Care of You)

1 Be not dismayed whate'er betide,
God will take care of you;
Beneath God's wings of love abide,
God will take care of you.

Refrain:
God will take care of you,
through every day, o'er all the way;
God will take care of you,
God will take care of you.

2 Through days of toil when heart grows frail,
God will take care of you;
When dangers fierce your path assail,
God will take care of you. [Refrain]

3 All you may need God will provide,
God will take care of you;
Nothing you ask will be denied,
God will take care of you. [Refrain]

4 No matter what may be the test,
God will take care of you;
Lean, weary one, upon God's breast,
God will take care of you. [Refrain]
