Resignation Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBBBB CDEDED FGHGHG| If Thou who seest this heart of mine | A |
| To earthly idols prone | B |
| Should'st all those clinging cords untwine | B |
| And take again Thy own | B |
| Help me to lay my hands in thine | B |
| And say Thy will be done | B |
| - | |
| But Oh when Thou dost claim the gift | C |
| Which Thou did'st only lend | D |
| And leav'st my life of love bereft | E |
| And lonely to the end | D |
| Oh Saviour be Thyself but left | E |
| My best beloved Friend | D |
| - | |
| And still the chastening hand I bless | F |
| Which doth my steps uphold | G |
| Along earth's thorny wilderness | H |
| Back to the Father's fold | G |
| Where I Thy face in righteousness | H |
| Shall evermore behold | G |
