Teach me contentment, Lord, whate'er my lot,
keeping my eyes on You in trust,
knowing Your love is true, Your way is just.
Teach discontentment, Lord, with what I am;
daily striving, growing daily nearer,
finding You are daily closer, dearer.
Contented, Lord, yet discontented make me,
both together working, blending
all in Your own glory ending.
- Ruth Bell Graham
from Sitting by my laughing fire...
