  1. My life is but a weaving
    Between my God and me;
    I cannot choose the colors
    He worketh steadily.
    Sometimes He weaveth sorrow
    And I in foolish pride
    Forget He sees the upper,
    And I the under side.
  2. Not till the loom is silent
    And the shuttles cease to fly,
    Shall God unroll the canvas
    And explain the reason why.
    The dark threads are as needful
    In the Weaver’s skillful hand,
    As the threads of gold and silver
    In the pattern He has planned.
  3. My life is but a weaving
    Between my God and me;
    I see the seams, the tangles,
    But He sees perfectly.
    He knows, He loves, He cares,
    Nothing this truth can dim;
    He gives His very best to those
    Who chose to walk with Him.
