The Lord be prais'd. 2 Rayment and food and counsel tried God for His children will provide; They shall not starve, nor homeless roam, Children may claim their Father’s home. The Lord be prais'd. 3 Singing the birds t'ward heaven soar, Neither they reap, nor lay in store, Yet, where the hoarder dies from need Gathers the little bird a seed. The Lord be prais'd. 4 Clad are the flow'rs in raiment fair, Fairest to see on deserts bare; Neither they spin, nor weave, nor sew, Glory like theirs no king can show. The Lord be prais'd. 5 Flowers that bloom at break of dawn Wither and die when day is gone; How can they with the child compare That shall the Father’s glory share. The Lord be prais'd. 6 God’s little child, do then fore’er Cast on the Lord thy ev'ry care, Trust in His love, His grace and might, Then shall His peace thy soul delight. The Lord be praised. 7 Rayment and food, your daily bread, He will provide as He has said, And when His sun for thee goes down He will thy soul with glory crown. The Lord be praised.

Bertelsen Meter: 10.9.10.9 Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: Spiritual Songs Divine Care and Guidance Lyrics: 1 Lord, make Thou me ever meek and humble, Thou hast called me here to bear Thy name; Lead me by Thy hand, lest I should stumble, And the world might put Thy child to shame. 2 Oft I tried to walk alone, obedient Only to my own desire and will, When my own way seem'd to me expedient, Thou decreas'd, and I grew vainer still. 3 Hence my heart grew faint with fear and anguish, Hence my vision dimm'd and was confus'd, Hence my soul in grief and fear did languish, And my stumbling feet were sorely bruis'd. 4 Lord, make Thou me ever meek and humble; Make me understand that Thou art great; Led by Thee I shall not stray and stumble, Tho' the way be dark and desolate.
