It is only a tiny rosebud,

A flower of God’s design;

But I cannot unfold the petals

With these clumsy hands of mine.



The secret of unfolding flowers

Is not known to such as I;

God opens this flower so sweetly,

When in my hands they fade and die.



If I cannot unfold a rosebud,

This flower of God’s design,

Then how can I think I have wisdom

To unfold this life of mine?



So, I’ll trust in Him for His leading

Each moment of every day;

I will look to him for His guidance

Each step of the pilgrim way.



The pathway that lies before me,

Only my Heavenly Father knows;

I’ll trust Him to unfold the moments,

Just as He unfolds the rose.
