Lyics

Lord, I have made thy word my choice,

My lasting heritage;

It shall my noblest powers rejoice,

My warmest thoughts engage.



I'll read the history of thy love,

And keep thy law in sight;

While thro' the promises I rove

With ever fresh delight.



 Tis a broad land of wealth unknown,

Where springs of life arise;

Seeds of immortal bliss are sown,

And hidden glory lies.



The best relief that mourners have,

It makes our sorrows blest;

Our fairest hope beyond the grave,

And our eternal rest.
