Trusting His Trying

"He knoweth the way that I take: when He hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.... For He performeth the thing that is appointed for me" (Job 23:10,14).

The Lord knows the way that I take;
He sees what I never could see.
I know that he makes no mistake;
He knows what is needful for me.

The Lord is performing with love
The thing that He knows will be best.
Beholding my ways from above,
He perfectly measures each test.

Your ways, Lord, are higher than mine;
I trust that I soon shall behold
That things You appoint will refine,
And I shall come forth then as gold.
