He That Is Down Need Fear No Fall

He that is down need fear no fall,
  He that is low no pride.
  He that is humble ever shall
  Have God to be his guide.

  I am content with what I have,
  Little be it, or much.
  And, Lord! Contentment still I crave,
  Because Thou savest such.

  Fulness to them a burden is,
  That go on pilgrimage.
  Here little, and hereafter bliss,
  Is best from age to age!
