And must I part with all I have

1

And must I part with all I have,My dearest Lord, for thee?It is but right since thou hast doneMuch more than this for me.

2

Yes, let it go; one look from theeWill more than make amendsFor all the losses I sustainOf honor, riches, friends.

3

Ten thousand worlds, ten thousand lives,How worthless they appearCompared with thee, supremely good,Divinely bright and fair!

4

Saviour of souls, could I from theeA single smile obtain,The loss of all things I could bear,And glory in my gain.
