“God shall alone the refuge be”

A hymn by Samuel Medley
  1. God shall alone the refuge be,
         And comfort of the mind;
    Too wise to be mistaken He,
         Too good to be unkind.
  1. In all His holy, sovereign will,
         He is, I daily find,
    Too wise to be mistaken still,
         Too good to be unkind.
  1. When sore afflictions on me lie,
         He is (though I am blind)
    Too wise to be mistaken, yea,
         Too good to be unkind.
  1. What though I can't His doings see,
         Nor all His footsteps find —
    Too wise to be mistaken He,
         Too good to be unkind.
  1. Hereafter He will make me know,
         And I shall surely find,
    He was too wise to err, and oh!
         Too good to be unkind.
