How God, my portion, and my love


My God, my portion, and my love,
My everlasting all!
I�ve none but Thee in Heav�n above,
Or on this earthly ball.

What empty things are all the skies,
And this inferior clod!
There�s nothing here deserves my joys,
There�s nothing like my God.

In vain the bright, the burning sun
Scatters his feeble light;
�Tis Thy sweet beams create my noon;
If Thou withdraw, �tis night.

And whilst upon my restless bed,
Amongst the shades I roll,
If my Redeemer shows His head,
�Tis morning with my soul.

To Thee we owe our wealth, and friends,
And health, and safe abode:
Thanks to Thy Name for meaner things,
But they are not my God.

How vain a toy is glitt�ring wealth,
If once compared to Thee!
Or what�s my safety, or my health,
Or all my friends to me?

Were I possessor of the earth,
And called the stars my own,
Without Thy graces and Thyself
I were a wretch undone.

Let others stretch their arms like seas
And grasp in all the shore,
Grant me the visits of Thy face,
And I desire no more.
