FATHER, whate'er of earthly bliss Thy sovereign will denies, Accepted at thy throne of grace Let this petition rise:

" Give me a calm, a thankful heart, From every murmur free; The blessings of thy grace impart, And make me live to thee.

" Let the sweet hope that thou art mine My life and death attend: Thy presence through my journey shine, And crown my journey's end."
