SS&S 640: I would not ask for earthly store---

 SS&S 640: I would not ask for earthly store---

1. I would not ask for earthly store---

Thou wilt my need supply;

But I would covet, more and more,

The clear and single eye,

To see my duty face to face,

And trust Thee, Lord, for daily grace.

 

Then shall my heart keep sing . . . ing,

While to the cross I cling; . .

For rest is sweet at Jesus' feet,

While homeward faith keeps winging,

While homeward faith keeps winging.

 

2. I care not for the empty show

That thoughtless worldlings see;

But gladly do the best I know,

And leave the rest with Thee ;â€

Well satisfied that sweet reward

Is sure to those who trust the Lord,

 

3. Whate'er the crosses mine shall be,

I would not dare to shun;

But only ask to live for Thee,

And that Thy will be done;

Thy will, O Lord, be mine each day,

While pressing on my homeward way.

 

4. And when at last, my labour o'er,

I cross the narrow sea,

Grant, Lord, that on the other shore

My soul may dwell with Thee;

And learn what here I cannot know,

Why Thou hast ever loved me so.
