I have learn'd the wondrous secret Of a bid -ing in the Lord; 2. I am cru ci-fied with Jesus, And He lives and dwells in me, 3. All my cares I cast up-on Him, And He bears them all a-way; 4. For my words I take His wisdom, For my works His Spir-it's power;

I have found the strength and sweetness Of con- fid-ing in His word;

For my ways His gracious Presence Guards and guides me ev'ry hour.

song, Praising my Sav-iour all the day long; This is my sto ry,
