O blessed life-the heart at rest

O blessed life-the heart at rest When all without tumultuous seems, That trusts a higher will, and deems, That higher will, not mine, the best.

O blessed life, the mind that sees, Whatever change the years may bring, A mercy still in everything, And shining through all mysteries.

O blessed life, as spirit soars, When sense of mortal sight is dim, Beyond the sense, beyond to Him, Whose love unlocks the glorious doors.

O blessed life, heart, mind, and soul, From self-born aims and wishes free, In all at one with Deity, And loyal to the Lord's control.

O life, how blessed, how divine, High life, the earnest of a higher; Savior, fulfill my deep desire, And let this blessed life be mine.
