I ask not, Lord, for less to bear

Author: Annie R. Smith Appears in 9 hymnals Topics: The Christian Trust and Resignation Lyrics: 1 I ask not, Lord, for less to bear Here in the narrow way, But that I may thy blessing share In all I do or say, In all I do or say. 2 Through whatsoe'er my path shall lie, With patience may I run; With filial trust my heart reply, "Thy will, O God, be done." 3 With thee to lead, I will not fear In scenes with dangers rife, While still thy cheering voice I hear, "I am the Way, the Life." 4 Thou art the refuge of my soul, My hope when comforts flee, My strength while life's rough billows roll, My joy eternally. 5 Then help me to improve with care, These precious moments given; For they a faithful record bear, Of good or ill, to Heaven. 6 And in thine arms of love enfold Me from the tempter's snare; And in the book of life enrolled, Be my name written there.
