The Shepherd Boy sings in the Valley of Humiliation

HE that is down needs 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. 

Fullness to such a burden is 
   That go on pilgrimage: 
Here little, and hereafter bliss, 
   Is best from age to age.
