Why should I murmur or repine,
Beneath the smarting rod;
When all the trials I endure,
Come from a gracious God.
He never lifts his hand to strike,
But I provoke the blow;
Swift are the movements of his love,
Those of his anger slow.
With the great Sovereign of the world,
I would not dare to strive;
He at his pleasure wounds and heals,
And kills and makes alive.
