CONTENTMENT.

RESTLESS, unsatisfied no more am I ; Supreme contentment doth with me abide; Sincerely I can say to thee, my Lord, Than thine, I want no other will beside.
However quiet all my life may be, However hedged about my way may seem ; Though smallest duties only fall to me, Thy loving kindness still shall be my theme.
Though I have often dreamed of greater things, Oft prayed that I in other ways might go ; Yet quiet now I rest within God's hands, And whatsoe'er he does is well, I know.
