Graces: Father of earth and heaven
From Graces (1746) · Osborn ed., vol. 3 (1869)
Religion
Father of earth and heaven,
Thy hungry children feed,
Thy grace be to our spirits given,
That true immortal bread!
Grant us and all our race
In Jesus Christ to prove
The sweetness of Thy pardoning grace,
The manna of Thy love.
