DEATH OF A CHILD




God hath bereaved me of my child;
His hand in this I've viewed;
It is the Lord, shall I complain?
“He doth what seems him good!”


I know the Lord does all things well;
His will has always stood;
It is the Lord, I this can tell,
He doth what seems him good!


'Twas God who gave my child to me,
Th' appointed time he stood;
It is the Lord I plainly see,
He doth what seems him good!


Yet nature feels—but ah, he's gone—
For him my tears have flowed;
It is the Lord, his hand I own,
He doth what seems him good.


Support my sinking spirit up
Under this heavy load,
It is the Lord, and he is just,
He doth what seeing him good.


It is on thee my hope is stayed,
I know thou art my Cod;
It is the Lord, his hand I'll bless,
He doth what seems him good.


Uphold me, Lord, by grace divine,
And cleanse me with thy blood;
I now resign my all to thee,
Since all things work for good.
