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.”
We may, like the ships,
By tempest be tossed
On perilous deeps,
But cannot be lost.
Though Satan enrages
The wind and the tide,
The promise engages,
The Lord will provide.
His call we obey,
like Abram of old,
Not knowing our way,
but faith makes us bold;
For, though we are strangers,
we have a good guide,
And trust, in all dangers,
the Lord will provide.
