Divine Device Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEFGAGA FGFGAHAH

Would it be loss or gainA
To hapless human kindB
If we could feel no painA
Of body or of mindB
Would it be for our goodC
If we were calloused soD
And God in mercy shouldC
End all our woeD
-
I wonder and I doubtE
It is my bright beliefF
We should be poor withoutE
The gift of griefF
For suffering may beG
A blessing not a baneA
And though we sorrow weG
Should praise for PainA
-
Aye it's my brave beliefF
That grateful we should beG
Since in the heart of griefF
Is love and sympathyG
We do not weep in vainA
So let us kiss the rodH
And see in purging PainA
The Grace of GodH
