Kingdoms are not my desire,
Costly food or rich attire;
These I cheerfully resign,
Let but Agur’s lot be mine.
Be that little sanctified,
Nothing here I want beside;
With a competency blessed,
I am happy and at rest.
I with pleasure eat my bread,
Bless the hand by which I’m fed,
envy not the miser’s store,
His compared with mine is poor.
On the Saviour of my soul,
I my daily burden roll;
Whether more I have or less,
He’s my only happiness.
