I Give Thee Thanks

My God whose bounty fills my cup

With every blessing meet!

I give Thee thanks for every drop,

The bitter and the sweet.

I praise Thee for the desert road,

And for the riverside,

For all thy goodness hath bestowed,

And all Thy grace denied.

I thank Thee for both smile and frown,

And for the gain and loss;

I praise Thee for the future crown,

And for the present cross.
