Lord, it belongs not to my care

Author: Richard Baxter Appears in 267 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life Cross and Comfort Lyrics: 1 Lord, it belongs not to my care Whether I die or live; To love and serve Thee is my share, And this Thy grace must give. 2 If life be long, I will be glad That I may long obey; If short, yet why should I be sad To soar to endless day? 3 Christ leads me through no darker rooms Than He went through before; He that into God's kingdom comes Must enter by this door. 4 Come, Lord, when grace has made me meet Thy blessèd face to see; For if Thy work on earth be sweet, What will Thy glory be? 5 Then I shall end my sad complaints And weary sinful days, And join with the triumphant saints Who sing my Saviour's praise. 6 My knowledge of that life is small, The eye of faith is dim; But 'tis enough that Christ knows all, And I shall be with Him. Amen. Used With Tune: TALLIS' ORDINAL

Woe to me that e’er I wandered, ah, that I such need should know. [Refrain] 4 “Father,” I’ll say, “I have sinned before thee, no more may I be called thy son. Make me only as thy servant; pity me, a wretch undone!” [Refrain] 5 Then I arose and came to my father. Mercy amazing! Love unknown!
