753. Thou hidden Source of calm repose

1 Thou hidden Source of calm repose,
Thou all-sufficient love divine,
My help and refuge from my foes,
Secure I am if thou art mine!
And, lo! from sin and grief and shame
I hide me, Jesus, in thy name.

2 Jesus, my all in all thou art,
My rest in toil, my ease in pain,
The healing of my broken heart;
In strife my peace, in loss my gain,
My smile beneath the tyrant's frown,
In shame my glory and my crown.

3 In want my plentiful supply,
In weakness my almighty power,
In bonds my perfect liberty,
My light in Satan's darkest hour;
No trouble can my soul appall:
Thou art my life, my heaven, my all.
