Grace And Providence.

    By William Cowper



    Almighty King! whose wondrous hand
    Supports the weight of sea and land,
    Whose grace is such a boundless store,
    No heart shall break that sighs for more.


    Thy providence supplies my food,
    And ‘tis thy blessing makes it good;
    My soul is nourish’d by thy word,
    Let soul and body praise the Lord.


    My streams of outward comfort came
    From him who built this earthly frame;
    Whate’er I want his bounty gives,
    By whom my soul for ever lives.


    Either his hand preserves from pain,
    Or, if I feel it, heals again;
    From Satan’s malice shields my breast,
    Or overrules it for the best.


    Forgive the song that falls so low
    Beneath the gratitude I owe!
    It means thy praise, however poor;
    An angel’s song can do no more.
