‘Tis God, who those that trust in him
Beholds with gracious eyes;
He frees their soul from death, their want
In time of dearth supplies.
How happy then are they, to whom
The Lord for God is known!
Whom he, from all the world besides,
Has chosen for his own.
Our souls on God with patience wait;
Our help and shield is he:
Then, Lord, still let our hearts rejoice,
Because we trust in thee.
The riches of thy mercy, Lord,
Do thou to us extend;
Since we, for all we want or wish,
On thee alone depend.
