In the clutch of pains that follow me
From my head down to my sole,
I wonder what life holds’ for me?
In the darkness of my world
Despite the pangs I would not complain
Even when I pine,
And though at times I feel disdain
I know, I am wholly Thine
Beyond this world of wrath and tears
Looms, but the Heavens’ above,
With freedom from pains or fears
And the bounty of my Father’s love
So, in the midst of my circumstance
In this blessed evening shade,
I’ll live by faith and not by chance
Strong in heart and unafraid!
