The Unchangeable Truth and Love of Jesus

Verse 1

Submissively, my God, I all to thee resign, And bow before thy chast'ning rod; Nor will I, Lord, repine.

Verse 2

Why should my heart complain, When wisdom, truth, and love Direct the stroke, inflict the pain, And point to joys above?

Verse 3

How short my suff'rings here! How needful every cross! Away with doubt, distrust, and fear, Nor call my gain my loss.

Verse 4

Then give, or take away, I'll bless thy sacred Name: Jesus to-day, and yesterday, And ever, is the same.
