[Happy he whose utmost patience]

They compel one . . . to bear His cross. —xv. 21.

Happy he whose utmost patience
Is by daily troubles tried!
Forced at first through sore temptations
With his suffering Lord to' abide,
Soon he chooses his condition,
Loves the cross of Jesus' pains,
Bears it with entire submission,
Thus the promised crown obtains.
