| Text: | A Thousand Wants |
| Author: | Lucy A. Bennett |
| Tune: | [A thousand wants thy path attend] |
| Composer: | C. H. Forrest |
1 A thousand wants thy path attend:—
Ten thousand blessings God will send.
2 What tho’ yon threat’ning clouds appal?
God’s mercy tow’rs above them all.
3 What tho’ temptations round thee spread?
God’s “open door” is just ahead.
4 Ways of escape seem lost in night:—
God’s “way” awaits thy wondering sight.
5 Deep unto deep perchance may call:—
Jehovah will respond to all.
6 What need soe’er thy heart descries,
That is the need thy God supplies.
7 O’er the calm current of His will
Grace bears thee onward, homeward still.
