1. Why art thou sad O troubled soul?
There’s One that makes the wounded whole;
Upon the Lord thy burden roll,
Leave it to him, (Leave it to him,)
Leave it to him. (Leave it to him.)
Chorus:
Leave it to him who knoweth all,
(Leave it to him who knoweth all, leave it to him,)
Him who marks the sparrow’s fall,
(Leave it to him who marks the sparrow’s fall,)
Who listens to the raven’s call,
Leave it to him, (Leave it to him,)
Leave it to him. (Leave it to him.)
2. However dark thy path may be,
Tho’ trials deep may come to thee,
He rules on high thy destiny:
Leave it to him, (Leave it to him,)
Leave it to him. (Leave it to him.)
3. He cannot fail to lead thee right,
To turn to day thy darkest night,
And flood from heav’n thy path with light;
Leave it to him, (Leave it to him,)
Leave it to him. (Leave it to him.)
4. He wipes the tears from sorrow’s eyes,
He calms to peace heartbroken sighs,
And points thee upward to the skies;
Leave it to him, (Leave it to him,)
Leave it to him. (Leave it to him.)
