When things on which my heart is set
Thy sovereign will denies,
And I am tempted to forget
That Thou art just and wise;
Let this my joy and comfort be,
That so it seemeth good to Thee.
When sinners prosper while the just
Are chastened every day,
And hope lies hopeless in the dust
Through unexplained delay,
Then let my joy and comfort be,
That so it seemeth good to Thee.
When those I love from me depart
To mansions in the skies,
And sorrow overwhelms my heart
And blinds my weeping eyes;
O Lord! Let this my comfort be,
That so it seemeth good to Thee.
"If thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised Him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.”
