Though troubles assail
And dangers affright;
Though friends should all fail,
And foes all unite—
Yet one thing secures us,
Whatever betide:
The Scripture assures us
"The Lord will provide."
The birds, without barn
Or storehouse, are fed;
From them let us learn
To trust for our bread;
His saints what is fitting
Shall ne'er be denied,
So long as 'tis written
"The Lord will provide."
No strength of our own
Or goodness we claim;
Yet since we have known
The Saviour's great Name,
In this, our strong tower,
For safety we hide—
Almighty His power:
"The Lord will provide."
