I am not skilled to understand

While this song has been in the Believer's Hymn Book (#251) originally written by Dorothy Greenwell- 1873, I have never heard it sung before. However, this song has been on the radio frequently on my trips to and from school. Leaving all of the music aside, the lyrics have been particularly significant to me.
The song begins:
I am not skilled to understand
What God has willed, what God has planned
I only know at His right hand
Stands one who is my Savior

I take Him at His word and deed
"Christ died for sinners"; this I read
And in my heart I find a need
Of Him to be my Savior

To listen to a music recording by Aaron Shust and for the full lyrics: 

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are called according to his purpose. {Romans 8:28}

  1. What a comfort to know one who is "my savior".
    I think of the words of Deuteronomy 10:21: "He is thy praise, and he is thy God,"
