Tune: Albano
('Behold, dear Lord, we come again'
= 'Once, only once, and once for all')
Philippians 4 v.11-13
*******
Lord, help us learn, whatever state
We be in, it not fate
But your appointing, what you deign
In your continual reign
In whatever state there to be
Our lot contentedly
Whether abased, living humbly
Or abound prosperously
Every where and in all things learn
And to acceptance turn
Whether we full or hungry be
Abounding or needy
So to find that in Christ we can
Trust him, the Son of Man
Can do all things through Him who gives
Us strength, and each one lives
