Tune: | [Undismayed whatever fortune] |
Composer: | Anna Teilmann |
1 Undismay'd whatever fortune
Life may have in store for me,
Thus, tho' trying be my portion,
I will ever strive to be.
If I but in grace abide,
Undismay'd whate’er betide.
2 Undismay'd when others harry
Mind and soul with anxious fear,
If the Lord with me will tarry
All my troubles disappear.
If I but in grace abide,
Undismay'd whate’er betide.
3 Undismay'd when others sighing
Quail before the evil day;
On God’s grace I am relying,
Nothing can me then dismay.
If I but in grace abide,
Undismay'd whate’er betide.
4 Undismay'd when others fearing
See the hour of death draw nigh;
With the victor’s crown appearing
Why should I repine and sigh.
If I but in grace abide,
Undismay'd whate’er betide.
5 Dearest Lord, if I may treasure
Thy abundant grace each day,
I shall cherish Thy good pleasure
Be my portion what it may.
If I but in grace abide,
Undismay'd whate’er betide.
