The Lord Will Provide
O laden and weary,
1
O laden and weary,Who strive for the right,Tho' earth be all dreary,Still trust in His might,Nor fear for the morrow,That care will betide;In sickness or sorrowThe Lord will provide.
Refrain.
The Lord will provide,The Lord will provide;How precious the promise,—The Lord will provide!
2
Tho' friends look but coldly,And speak not to cheer,Act firmly, speak boldly,A Helper is near:An armor for shielding,A banner for guide;Be faithful, unyielding,—The Lord will provide.
3
The battle once over,The tempest all past,The face of JehovahWill comfort at last;Earth's cares and its sadnessBut shortly can hideHeaven's glory and gladness,—The Lord will provide.
