Lord, it belongs not to my care
\nWhether I die or live;
\nTo love and serve Thee is my share,
\nAnd this Thy grace must give.<\/p>\n
If life be long, I will be glad,
\nThat I may long obey;
\nIf short, yet why should I be sad
\nTo welcome endless day?<\/p>\n
Christ leads me through no darker rooms
\nThan He went through before;
\nHe that unto God\u2019s kingdom comes
\nMust enter by this door.<\/p>\n
Come, Lord, when grace hath made me meet
\nThy bless\u00e8d face to see;
\nFor if Thy work on earth be sweet
\nWhat will Thy glory be!<\/p>\n
Then I shall end my sad complaints
\nAnd weary sinful days,
\nAnd join with the triumphant saints
\nThat sing my Savior\u2019s praise.<\/p>\n
My knowledge of that life is small,
\nThe eye of faith is dim;
\nBut \u2019tis enough that Christ knows all,
\nAnd I shall be with Him.<\/p>\n
