Contentment Still I Crave
CONTENTMENT STILL I CRAVE
He that is down needs not fear no fall
He that is up needs not to get down
He that is humble ever shall
Have God to be his guide
I am content with what I have
Little be it or much I make do with it
And pray, lord, contentment still I crave
Because thou savest such in your kingdom
I will look upon you God
Let my will and yours be but the same
Save my mind to long for Good
On the alter of goodness I cry
Tend my steps to success
I pray thee night and day
In you I put all my Trust
Never leave me in the dark
Thou knowest purpose thou created me
Make me good now. Oh God
Least they that mock laugh at me
Yet contentment still I crave.
