LyicsIn thee, thou all-sufficient God,
The springs of happiness arise,
That cheer this howling waste below,
And bless the mansions of the skies;
We, the productions of thy power,
And pensioners upon thy love,
Look to thy throne with longing eyes,
And wait thy blessings from above.
Protect the young from every snare,
And let thy staff support the old,
Relieve the poor nor let the rich,
Have all their heritage in gold.
Let joyful saints still taste thy grace,
Give to the mourners heavenly day,
Sustain the strong, and quick revive,
The withering plants from their decay.
