Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDED FGHGIDJD KLMLNDOD PQRQSDTD UAUALDVD W| When days are dark and spirits low | A |
| And hope desponding stands | B |
| What comfort these few words bestow | A |
| My times are in thy hands | B |
| That thought should every fear allay | C |
| And every cloud dispel | D |
| For we are in the hands of One | E |
| Who doeth all things well | D |
| - | |
| He clothes the lily of the field | F |
| Paints the gay tulip's leaf | G |
| Hears the young ravens when they cry | H |
| And hastes to their relief | G |
| That little sparrow in thy path | I |
| He noticed when it fell | D |
| Numbereth the hairs upon thy head | J |
| And doeth all things well | D |
| - | |
| Then say not when with cares oppressed | K |
| He hath forsaken me | L |
| For had thy father loved thee less | M |
| Would he so chasten thee | L |
| A friend he takes a Husband too | N |
| A Child with him to dwell | D |
| Selects the day the place the hour | O |
| He doeth all things well | D |
| - | |
| His power is heard when thunders roll | P |
| Felt when the cold wind blows | Q |
| Seen in the vivid lightning's flash | R |
| And in the blushing rose | Q |
| He cares for monarch on his throne | S |
| For hermit in his cell | D |
| For sailor on the mighty deep | T |
| He doeth all things well | D |
| - | |
| He raiseth one to high estate | U |
| He brings another low | A |
| This year an empire doth create | U |
| The next may overthrow | A |
| What he may plan for you or me | L |
| While here on earth we dwell | D |
| We know not but of this I'm sure | V |
| He doeth all things well | D |
