248: ‘Tis My Happiness Below
Verse 1
’Tis my happiness below
Not to live without the cross;
But the Saviour’s power to know,
Sanctifying every loss.
Verse 2
Trials must and will befall;
But with humble faith to see
Love inscribed upon them all—
This is happiness to me.
Verse 3
Did I meet no trials here,
No chastisement by the way,
Might I not with reason fear
I should prove a castaway?
Verse 4
Trials make the promise sweet;
Trials give new life to prayer;
Trials bring me to his feet,
Lay me low, and keep me there.
