Tis my happiness below

Hymnal: The Book of Worship #334 (1867) Lyrics: 1 'Tis my happiness below Not to live without the cross; But the Saviour's power to know, Sanctifying every loss. 2 Trials must and will befall; But with humble faith to see Love inscribed upon them all, This is happiness to me. 3 Did I meet no trials here, No chastisement by the way; Might I not with reason fear I should be a cast-away? 4 Trials make the promise sweet; Trials give new life to prayer; Bring me to my Saviour's feet, Lay me low, and keep me there.

'Tis my happiness below

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #444 (1828) Meter: Irregular Lyrics: 1 'Tis my happiness below, Not to live without the cross; But the Saviour's pow'r to know, Sanctifying every loss: Trials must and will befall; But--with humble faith to see Love inscrib'd upon them all-- This is happiness to me. 2 God, in Israel, sows the seeds Of affliction, pain and toil: These spring up, and choke the weeds, Which would else o'erspread the soil; Trials make the promise sweet; Trials give me life to pray'r; Trials bring me to his feet,-- Lay me low, and keep me there. 3 Did I meet no trials here-- No chastisement by the way-- Might I not, with reason, fear I should prove a cast-away? Bastards may escape the rod, Sunk in earthly vain delight; But the true-born son of God Must not,--would not, if he might. Topics: Christian experience The Christian life figuratively described as Taking up the Cross; Welcoming the Cross
