Through all the downward tracts of time,
God's watchful eye surveys;
O, who so wise to choose our lot,
Or regulate our ways?
I cannot doubt his bounteous love,
Unmeasurably kind;
To his unerring, gracious will,
Be ev'ry wish resigned.
Good when he gives, supremely good,
Nor less when he denies;
Ev'n crosses from his sov'reign hand
Are blessings in disguise.
In thy fair book of life divine,
My God, inscribe my name;
There let it fill some humble place,
Beneath the slaughtered Lamb.
