Lord, Teach Me to Be Content

Lord teach me to be content,
With all that you've given me.
May my heart not be bent,
To covet other things that I see.

Lord teach me to be content,
To have a thankful heart.
May generosity be my intent,
And gratitude the place I start.

Lord teach me to be content,
Whether in plenty or hard pressed.
May your joy be my life's scent,
Your goodness my place of rest.

Lord teach me to be content,
In every season that you decree.
May I trust through every event,
Your provision of every need.

Lord teach me to be content,
With every gift from your hand.
For it is you that I represent
On your love and grace I stand.

Lord open my eyes to fully see,
Your goodness all around.
Truly content, teach me to be,
May unrest in my heart not be found.
