Comfort Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCBCDCD ECECFGHG CIJIKLKL

Say You've struck a heap of troubleA
Bust in business lost your wifeB
No one cares a cent about youC
You don't care a cent for lifeB
Hard luck has of hope bereft youC
Health is failing wish you'd dieD
Why you've still the sunshine left youC
And the big blue skyD
-
Sky so blue it makes you wonderE
If it's heaven shining throughC
Earth so smiling 'way out yonderE
Sun so bright it dazzles youC
Birds a singing flowers a flingingF
All their fragrance on the breezeG
Dancing shadows green still meadowsH
Don't you mope you've still got theseG
-
These and none can take them from youC
These and none can weigh their worthI
What you're tired and broke and beatenJ
Why you're rich you've got the earthI
Yes if you're a tramp in tattersK
While the blue sky bends aboveL
You've got nearly all that mattersK
You've got God and God is loveL
