Why do we utter our complaints
Disheartened and forlorn,
As though the Lord could leave his saints
In solitude to mourn?
Think we the mother’s loving eye
Forgets the child she bore?
Or that she hears its plaintive cry
And pity feels no more?
Yes, she may los her pity, yet
He whose kind care we prove,
Jehovah, never can forget
The children of his love.
