[Whene'er Thou leav'st me in distress]
But how then shall the scriptures be, &c.
—xxvi. 54.
Whene'er Thou leav'st me in distress,
Thy wisdom graciously decrees
The sorrow, loss, or pain,
That I Thy hallowing will may prove,
And perfected in patient love
A crown immortal gain.
Thy wisdom graciously decrees
The sorrow, loss, or pain,
That I Thy hallowing will may prove,
And perfected in patient love
A crown immortal gain.
Entering into my God's design,
No longer I the cross decline,
With its annex'd reward,
Like Him for no deliverance pray,
But suffering until death obey
To triumph with my Lord.
