O LORD, I WOULD DELIGHT IN THEE

O Lord, I would delight in Thee,
And on Thy care depend;
To Thee in every trouble flee,
My best, my only Friend.

When all created streams are dried
Thy fullness is the same;
May I with this be satisfied,
And glory in Thy Name.

O that I had a stronger faith
To look within the veil!
To credit what my Saviour saith,
Whose word can never fail.

Thou who hast made my heaven secure
Wilt here all good provide;
While Christ is rich, can I be poor,
Christ, who for me has died?

O Lord, I cast my care on Thee;
I triumph and adore;
Henceforth my great concern shall be
To love and praise Thee more.
