what have i to ask beside

The words of this timeless hymn has been very comforting this past few weeks. Amidst all the learning and hopefully growing up, I like the gentle reminder that 'whatever befalls me, Jesus doeth all things well'.

All the way my Savior leads me
What have I to ask beside
Can I doubt His tender mercy
Who through life has been my Guide
Heavenly peace, divinest comfort
Here by faith in Him to dwell
For I know, whatever befall me
Jesus doeth all things well
For I know, whatever befall me
Jesus doeth all things well

All the way my Savior leads me
Cheers each winding path I tread
Gives me grace for every trial
Feeds me with the living Bread
Though my weary steps may falter
And my soul athirst may be,
Gushing from the Rock before me
Lo a spring of joy I see
Gushing from the Rock before me
Lo a spring of joy I see

All the way my Savior leads me
Oh, the fullness of His love
Perfect rest to me is promised
In my Father’s house above.
When my spirit, clothed immortal
Wings its flight to realms of day
This my song through endless ages
Jesus led me all the way
This my song through endless ages
Jesus led me all the way
I love how Jesus loves me.
