Counted with Compassion

"The tellest my wanderings: put Thou my tears into Thy bottle: are they not in Thy book?" (Psalm 56:8). "The very hairs of your head are all numbered" (Matthew 10:30).

God has counted every wandering,
When we walked not in His way.
He perceived our wayward pondering,
When our hearts had gone astray.

God has counted all our tears,
Recording each one in His book.
On our sorrows, doubts, and fears,
With compassion, He did look.

God has counted all our hairs;
He numbered each one on our head.
How good it is to know He cares,
And rest our faith on what He said!
