THE HAND OF THE LORD HAS DONE THIS

The needs of the poor are obvious and painful;

A source of fresh water would make one grateful.

But where would one find water in the wilderness?

How would one discover water that is precious?

 

The LORD gave a word to the poor but faithful;

The Holy One of Israel would do all that is needful.

He knows their deepest needs and desires;

He would do all that anyone could require.

 

He would not forsake the poor and faithful;

His supply of precious water would be bountiful.

Rivers in desolate heights would be given;

The LORD would reveal His hand from heaven.

 

The faithful must take the time to consider;

There are many thoughts over which to ponder.

The mighty hand of the LORD would never fail;

Against all the odds of life, He will prevail.
