Resignation? or, God Our Portion

Verse 1

My times of sorrow and of joy, Great God, are in thy hand; My choicest comforts come from thee, And go at thy command.

Verse 2

If thou shouldst take them all away, Yet would I not repine; Before they were possessed by me, They were entirely thine.

Verse 3

Nor would I drop a murmuring word, Though the whole world were gone, But seek enduring happiness In thee, and thee alone.
