LyicsO Lord I do delight in thee,
And on thy care depend;
To thee in ev'ry trouble flee,
My best, my only friend.
When all created streams are dry'd,
Thy fulness is the same,
And I with this am satisfy'd,
And glory in thy name.
Why should the soul a drop bemoan,
Who has a fountain near;
A fountain, which will ever run
With water sweet and clear.
He that has made my heav'n secure,
Will here all good provide;
While Christ is rich, can I be poor,
His own beloved bride!
O Lord I cast my care on thee,
I triumph and adore;
Henceforth my great concern shall be
To love and serve thee more.
