One of our brothers has written music and a chorus to go with this poem and I may be partial, but I think the lyrics and music go together very well! But for now, here is just the poem.
He Maketh No Mistake
My Father’s way may twist and turn,
My Father’s way may twist and turn,
My heart may throb and ache,
But in my soul I’m glad to know,
He makes no mistakes,
My cherished plans may go astray,
My hopes may fade away,
But still I’ll trust my Lord to lead,
For He doth know the way,
Though the night be dark and it may seem,
That day will never break,
I’ll pin my faith, my all in Him,
He makes no mistake,
There’s so much now I cannot see,
My eyesight’s far too dim,
But come what may, I’ll simply trust,
And leave it all to Him,
For by and by the mist will lift,
And plain it all He’ll make,
Through all the way, though dark to me,
He made not one mistake.
– A.M. Overton, 1932

Psalm 18:30
As for God, His way is perfect: the word of the Lord is tried: He is a buckler to all those that trust in Him.
