He who sees the wounded—sparrow fall
Will surely provide for one and all.
Will surely provide for one and all.
"The Lord will provide," sang Baby Nell;
How sweetly the assurance fell
On the spirit worn with grief and pain,
Till the fainting faith revived again.
How sweetly the assurance fell
On the spirit worn with grief and pain,
Till the fainting faith revived again.
"The Lord will provide, my mamma, dear,"
And swift she kisses the healing tear
From the grateful mother's pallid cheek;
"The Lord provides for the poor and weak."
And swift she kisses the healing tear
From the grateful mother's pallid cheek;
"The Lord provides for the poor and weak."
"The Lord will provide." an orphan wails,
As every spring of living fails;
"The Lord will provide," the martyr cries
And, lo! with a smiling face he die.
As every spring of living fails;
"The Lord will provide," the martyr cries
And, lo! with a smiling face he die.
