Author: Anon. Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #487 (1899) Hymnal Title: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes Lyrics: 1 There’s not a bird with lonely nest,
In pathless wood or mountain crest,
Nor meaner thing, which does not share,
O God, in Thy paternal care.
2 Each barren crag, each desert rude,
Holds Thee within its solitude;
And Thou dost bless the wanderer there,
Who makes his solitary prayer.
3 In busy mart and crowded street,
No less than in the still retreat,
Thou, Lord, art near, our souls to bless
With all a parent’s tenderness!
4 And every moment still doth bring
Thy blessings on its loaded wing;
Widely they spread through earth and sky,
And last through all eternity!
Amen. Topics: God Mercies of; Providence; Trust In God; Trust In Providence Languages: English Tune Title: WARE
