Though all earthly wealth depart;
He who God for bis hath taken,
'Mid the changing world unshaken
Keeps a free, heroic heart.
He who hitherto hath fed me.
And to many a Joy hath led me.
Is and shall be ever mine;
He who did so gently school me.
He who still doth guide and rule
me, *
Will not leave me now to pine.
Shall I weary mo with fretting
O'er vain trifles, and regretting
Things that never can remain?
I will strive but that to win me
Which can shed true rest within
me,-
Rest the world must seek in vain
