Why should I fear what men can do;
With trials, God with strength renew;
If they torment, or if they kill,
They but perform his sovereign will.
Should I be banished far from home,
Midst foes, where friends can never come;
Knowing that God is with me there,
Nor friends I miss, nor foes I fear.
In sickness, poverty, distress,
A dungeon or a wilderness;
If I can God my portion call,
I nothing want, for he is all.
