    Content With God’s Good Gifts

    (James 1:17)

    1. All perfect presents, each good gift,

    The things we’re fondest of,

    The truly worthy things in life,

    Come down from God above.

    With him there is no wavering,

    No change, however slight.

    Jehovah is our Grand Provider,

    The Source of life and light.

    2. We have no cause for anxious care

    Concerning daily needs;

    We know the loving care by him

    Who birds of heaven feeds.

    We give no place to worthless things,

    No years to hurtful strife.

    But satisfied with God’s provisions,

    We lead a simple life.

    3. The lofty things in human eyes,

    To God are merely vain.

    Let’s use the days we’re granted now

    For things of lasting gain.

    The riches that we store with God

    Are safe, though we may die.

    We prize the gift of true contentment

    And keep a simple eye.
