1 The eyes of all things, Lord, attend,
And on Thee wait, that here do live;
And Thou, in season due, dost send
Sufficient food them to relieve.
2 Yea, Thou Thine hand dost open wide,
And every thing dost satisfy
That lives, and doth on earth abide,
Of Thy great liberality.
3 The Lord is just in all His ways,
And holy in His works each one;
He's near to all that do Him praise,
And call in truth on Him alone.
4 God will the just desire fulfil
Of such as do Him serve and fear;
Their cry regard and hear He will,
And in the time of need be near.
