Because of Calvary,
John Janney

• Psalm 31:14-16 (ESV)

  14 But I trust in you, O Lord;
  I say, “You are my God.”
  15 My times are in your hand;
  rescue me from the hand of my enemies and from my persecutors!
  16 Make your face shine on your servant;
  save me in your steadfast love!

SERENITY

“My times are in Thy hand;

My God, I wish them thee;

My life, my friends, my soul, I leave

Entirely to thy care.

My times are in Thy hand,

Whatever they may be;

Pleasing or painful, dark or bright,

As best may seem to Thee.

My times are in Thy hand,

Why should I doubt or fear?

My Father’s hand will never cause

His child a needless tear.

My times are in Thy hand,

Jesus the crucified;

Those hands my cruel sins had pierced

Are no my guard and guide.”

[William F. Lloyd]
