Lyics

THE Lord, who rules the world's affairs,

For me a well-spread board prepares;

My grateful thanks to him shall rise;

He knows my wants: those wants supplies.



And shall I grudge to give his poor

A mite from all my plenteous store?

No, Lord, the friends of thine and thee

Shall always find a friend in me.
