Submissive to Thy will, my God,
I all to thee resign;
And bow before thy chast'ning rod—
I mourn, but not repine.
Why should my foolish heart complain?
When wisdom, truth, and love,
Direct the stroke, inflict the pain,
And point to joys above?
How short are all my suff'rings here,
How needful every cross;
Away, my unbelieving fear,
Nor call my gain my loss.
Then give, dear Lord, or take away,
I'll bless thy sacred name;
My Jesus, yesterday, to-day,
For ever is the same!
