Another song that ministered to me today. Very apt, very encouraging, a great reminder that God doesn't promise us a bed of roses in our life's journey, but rather that there will be many trials, many heartaches, many temptations and many struggles on a journey fraught with difficulties. But His promise is that He is faithful and will see us through. His ways are beyond ours, but He is sovereign over all, fully fully fully in control. 
Indeed, "in every change, He faithful will remain".

 Be Still My Soul

Be still, my soul, the Lord is on thy side. 
Bear patiently, the cross of grief or pain. 
Leave to thy God, to order and provide. 
In every change, He faithful will remain. 
Be still, my soul, thy best thy heavenly Friend. 
Through thorny ways, leads to a joyful end. 

Be still, my soul, thy God doth undertake. 
To guide the future as He has the past. 
Thy hope, thy confidence, let nothing shake. 
All now mysterious shall be bright at last. 
Be still, my soul, the waves and wind still know. 
His voice who ruled them while He dwelt below. 

In You I rest, in You I found my hope. 
In You I trust, You never let me go. 
I place my life within Your hands alone. 
Be still, my soul. 

Be still, my soul, the hour is hastening on. 
When we shall be forever with the Lord. 
When disappointment, grief and fear are gone. 
Sorrow forgot, love's purest joys restored. 
Be still, my soul, when change and tears are past. 
All safe and blessed, we shall meet at last. 

In You I rest, in You I found my hope. 
In You I trust, You never let me go. 
I place my life within Your hands alone. 
Be still, my soul. (repeat) 

Be still, my soul 
Be still, my soul 
Be still, my soul
