|
<p>My God, I thank Thee, Who hast made<br>
|
|
The earth so bright,<br>
|
|
So full of splendor and of joy,<br>
|
|
Beauty and light;<br>
|
|
So many glorious things are here,<br>
|
|
Noble and right.</p>
|
|
<p>I thank Thee, too, that Thou hast made<br>
|
|
Joy to abound;<br>
|
|
So many gentle thoughts and deeds<br>
|
|
Circling us round,<br>
|
|
That in the darkest spot of earth<br>
|
|
Some love is found.</p>
|
|
<p>I thank Thee more that all our joy<br>
|
|
Is touched with pain,<br>
|
|
That shadows fall on brightest hours,<br>
|
|
That thorns remain;<br>
|
|
So that earth’s bliss may be our guide,<br>
|
|
And not our chain.</p>
|
|
<p>For thou who knowest, Lord, how soon<br>
|
|
Our weak heart clings,<br>
|
|
Hast given us joys, tender and true,<br>
|
|
Yet all with wings;<br>
|
|
So that we see gleaming on high<br>
|
|
Diviner things.</p>
|
|
<p>I thank Thee, Lord, that Thou hast kept<br>
|
|
The best in store;<br>
|
|
We have enough, yet not too much<br>
|
|
To long for more:<br>
|
|
A yearning for a deeper peace<br>
|
|
Not known before.</p>
|
|
<p>I thank Thee, Lord, that here our souls<br>
|
|
Though amply blessed,<br>
|
|
Can never find, although they seek<br>
|
|
A perfect rest;<br>
|
|
Nor ever shall, until they lean<br>
|
|
On Jesus’ breast.</p>
