What a sweet and blessed feeling
When I wake up ev'ry day
Just to feel God's presence near me
Just to know He's there to stay.

Oh, I know I am not worthy
Of His tender love and care,
Still I have His precious promise
That He's with me ev'rywhere.

There will always be the shadows
And we can't escape the night,
Still I know He watches o'er me,
I am always in His sight;

Though the storms may rage around me
Still the Lord will help me stand,
There's a sweet and precious calmness
In the hollow of His hand.
