 1 

All thy griefs by Him are ordered,

Needful is each one for thee;

All thy tears by Him are counted,

One too much there cannot be;

And if while they fall so quickly

Thou canst own His way is right,

Then each bitter tear of anguish

Precious is in Jesus' sight.

 
 2 

Far too well thy Savior loves thee

To allow thy life to be

One long, calm, unbroken summer —

One unruffled, stormless sea;

He would have thee fondly nestling

Closer to His loving breast,

He would have that day seem brighter

When alone is perfect rest.
