Be not dismayed whate’er betide, God will take care of you; Beneath His wings of love abide, God will take care of you.
Refrain
God will take care of you, Through every day, over all the way; He will take care of you, God will take care of you.
Through days of toil when heart doth fail, God will take care of you; When dangers fierce your path assail, God will take care of you.
Refrain
All you may need He will provide, God will take care of you; Nothing you ask will be denied, God will take care of you.
Refrain
No matter what may be the test, God will take care of you; Lean, weary one, upon His breast, God will take care of you.
Refrain
Why should I feel discouraged, why should the shadows come, Why should my heart be lonely, and long for heaven and home, When Jesus is my portion? My constant friend is He: His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me; His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me.
Refrain
I sing because I’m happy, I sing because I’m free, For His eye is on the sparrow, And I know He watches me.
“Let not your heart be troubled,” His tender word I hear, And resting on His goodness, I lose my doubts and fears; Though by the path He leadeth, but one step I may see; His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me; His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me.
Refrain
Whenever I am tempted, whenever clouds arise, When songs give place to sighing, when hope within me dies, I draw the closer to Him, from care He sets me free; His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me; His eye is on the sparrow, and I know He watches me.

Refrain
It will never lose its pow’r, It will never lose its pow’r; The blood that cleanses from all sin Will never lose its pow’r.
It gives us access to God on high, From “far off places” it brings us nigh; To precious blessings that never die, It will never lose its pow’r.
Refrain
It is a shelter for rich and poor, It is to Heaven the open door; The sinner’s merit forevermore, It will never lose its pow’r.
Refrain
And when with all the blood washed throng We sing in glory redemption’s song; We’ll pass the glorious truth along, It has never lost its pow’r.
Refrain
Refrain
Power again, power again, Our hearts have been tuned to the sweet refrain, The breath of the Spirit brings power again.
The life has been fruitless, the heart dry and thirsty, The task of the Master seemed given in vain; But now ev’ry day is a day of rich blessing, The breath of the Spirit brings power again.
Refrain
No tithes have been brought to the storehouse of Heaven, Our powers for service long dormant have lain; But now ev’ry impulse is used in God’s glory, The breath of the Spirit brings power again.
Refrain
No souls have been won for the kingdom of glory, But power for service we now may obtain; Then gladly as reapers we enter the harvest, The breath of the Spirit brings power again.
Refrain
Refrain
My sin was old-fashioned, My guilt was old-fashioned, God’s love was old-fashioned, I know; And the way I was saved was the old-fashioned way, Through the blood that makes whiter than snow.
Old-fashioned, because I believe and accept Only what has been spoken from Heav’n; Old-fashioned because at the cross I was saved, At the cross had my sins forgiv’n.
Refrain
Old-fashioned, because I am bound to do right, To walk in the straight narrow way; Because I have given my whole life to God, Old-fashioned because I pray.
Refrain
Old-fashioned, because I am looking above To Jesus, my glorified Lord; Because I believe He is coming again, Fulfilling His holy Word.
Refrain
Refrain
Wonderful, wonderful love! He came from the glory above, To seek and to save, and to make me His own; O wonderful, wonderful love!
In love He redeemed me through shedding of blood, From “far away” places he brought me to God; He found me a sinner with no one to save, And graciously, lovingly my sins forgave.
Refrain
In love He redeemed me and made me His own, An heir to His glory, His kingdom and throne; Now anthems of joy to His Name I will sing, Adoring my Savior, my Lord and my King.
