Resignation.

All my griefs by Him are ordered Needful is each one for me, Every tear by Him is counted. One too much there cannot be; And if when they fall so thickly, I can own His way is right, Then each bitter tear of anguish Precious is in Jesus' sight.
Far too well my Saviour loved me To allow my life to be One long, calm, unbroken summer, One unruffled, stormless sea; He would have me fondly nestling Closer to his loving breast, He would have that world seem brighter Where alone is perfect rest.
Though His wise and loving purpose, Once I could not clearly see, I believe with faith unshaken, All will work for good to me; Therefore when my way is gloomy, And my eyes with tears are dim, I will go to God, my Father, And will tell my griefs to him.
