God Will Take Care of You (Crosby)

God will take care of you, be not afraid;
He is your safeguard through sunshine and shade;
Tenderly watching and keeping His own,
He will not leave you to wander alone.

Refrain

God will take care of you still to the end;
Oh, what a Father, Redeemer, and Friend!
Jesus will answer whenever you call;
He will take care of you, trust Him for all.

God will take care of you, through all the day,
Shielding your footsteps, directing your way;
He is your Shepherd, Protector, and Guide,
Leading His children where still waters glide.

Refrain

God will take care of you long as you live,
Granting you blessings no other can give;
He will take care of you when time is past,
Safe to His kingdom will bring you at last.

Refrain

Fanny Crosby (full name Frances Jane Crosby) is the attributed lyricist for this hymn, which is sometimes titled 'God Will Take Care of You (Crosby)' to distinguish it from the more famous 1904 hymn by the same name written by Civilla D. Martin. The text matches known Crosby publications from the late 19th century.
