LYRICS
Sovereign Ruler of the skies!
Ever gracious, ever wise!
All my times are in Your hand,
All events at Your command.

His decree, who formed the earth,
Fixed my first and second birth;
Now my life Him to owe
Where He leads me I will go

CHORUS
Ever Faithful
Ever True
Keep my heart to only You
Since I cannot part from Thee?
Sovereign Ruler ever be

Plagues and deaths around me fly,
Till He bids, I cannot die:
Not a single shaft can hit
Till the God of love thinks fit.

Times the tempter's power to prove,
Times to taste a Savior's love:
All must come, and last and end,
As shall please my heavenly Friend.

CHORUS…

He that formed me in the womb,
He shall guide me to the tomb;
All my times shall ever be
Ordered by His wise decree.

CHORUS…

Thee, at all times, will I bless;
Having Thee, I all possess;
Since I cannot part from Thee?
Sovereign Ruler ever be
