Religion

Providence

by James Montgomery 1771–1854

From Sacred Poems and Hymns (1854)

Religion

The tender mercies of our Lord,
And His long suffering grace,
The loving kindness of His word,
We every moment trace,

Our bread is given, our water sure,
Body and soul sustain'd,
O! may we to the end endure,
Till heaven itself is gain'd!
