Rhyme Scheme: ABAAA CDCDC EFEFEI would have gone God bade me stay | A |
I would have worked God bade me rest | B |
He broke my will from day to day | A |
He read my yearnings unexpressed | A |
And said them nay | A |
- | |
Now I would stay God bids me go | C |
Now I would rest God bids me work | D |
He breaks my heart tossed to and fro | C |
My soul is wrung with doubts that lurk | D |
And vex it so | C |

I go Lord where Thou sendest me | E |
Day after day I plod and moil | F |
But Christ my God when will it be | E |
That I may let alone my toil | F |
And rest with Thee | E |
