Author: Gayon Hymnal: Hymns of the Christian Life #266 (1936) First Line: My Lord, how full of sweet content Lyrics: 1 My Lord, how full of sweet content;
I pass my years of banishment!
Where’er I dwell, I dwell with Thee,
In heav’n, in earth, or on the sea;
Where’er I dwell, I dwell with Thee,
In heav’n, in earth, or on the sea.
2 To me remains nor place nor time;
My country is in ev’ry clime:
I can be calm and free from care
On any shore, since God is there;
I can be calm and free from care
On any shore, since God is there.
3 While place we seek, or place we shun
The soul finds happiness in none;
But with a God to guide our way,
‘Tis equal joy, to go or stay;
But with a God to guide our way,
‘Tis equal joy, to go or stay.
