Lyics

MY God, my portion, and my love,

My everlasting all;

I've none but thee in heav'n above,

Or on this earthly ball.



How vain a toy is glitt'ring wealth,

If once compar'd to thee!

Or what's my safety or my health,

Or all my friends to me?



Were I possessor of the earth,

And call'd the stars my own,

Without thy graces and thyself,

I were a wretch undone.
