Should we the Lord our God distrust,
Or contradict his will,
Who cannot do but what is just,
And must be righteous still?
It is the Lord who gives us all,
Our wealth, our friends, our ease;
And of his bounties may recall
Whatever part he please.
It is the Lord, who can sustain
Beneath the heaviest load;
From whom, assistance we obtain
To tread our homeward road.
It is the Lord, whose love and skill
Can from afflictions raise,
Blessings, eternity to fill
With ever-growing praise.
It is the Lord, our covenant God,
Thrice blessed be his name;
Whose gracious promise, sealed with blood,
Must ever be the same.
Can we with hopes so firmly built,
Be sullen or repine?
No, gracious God, take what thou wilt,
To thee we all resign.
