Author: Heber Hymnal: A Book of Hymns for Public and Private Devotion (15th ed.) #492 (1866) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Thy bounteous hand with food can bless Lyrics:
Thy bounteous hand with food can bless
The bleak and barren wilderness,
And Thou hast taught us, Lord, to pray
For daily bread from day to day.
And O, when through the wilds we roam
That part us from our heavenly home;
When, lost in danger, want, and woe,
Our faithless tears begin to flow;
Do Thou Thy gracious comfort give,
By which alone the soul can live;
And grant Thy children, Lord, we pray,
The bread of life from day to day!
