Representative Text

1 Can I doubt Him, my Father so tender,
Whom in glory I soon shall behold,
Unto Him would I gladly surrender,
I’m an heir to His riches untold.

Refrain:
Boundless blessings,
Greater than silver or gold;
I’m an heir, hallelujah!
I’m an heir to His riches untold.

2 Can I fear, for His love is abounding,
Ev’ry morning new mercies unfold,
I rejoice in His goodness surrounding,
I’m an heir to His riches untold. [Refrain]

3 Can I lack, for my Shepherd is near me,
He His own by His might shall uphold,
Yes, His rod and His staff ever cheer me,
I’m an heir to His riches untold. [Refrain]
