To Thee, who unto us, hast given
How often from Thy gracious store
A blessing, that we knew not, even,
Nor asked, yet, wildly did implore
Keen sorrows, which to finite mind
Seemed blessings. We, Thy creatures, STILL
Give thanks and praise that Thou didst slight
In mercy, all our cry. Thy love,
Vast, deep, all-pitying, no1o we know.
In all things, Thou, Thy care dost prove.
Now, in Thy sight, we humbly bow,
Give thanks and trust. Thy. Sovereign will.
