IV.

For those, who kindly this support, A better house prepare: And when remov’d to thy bless’d courts, O let us meet them there.

That they may always look to the rock from whence they are hewn, they sing daily this hymn.

Come let us join our GOD to bless, And praise him evermore; That Father of the fatherless, That helper of the poor.

Our dying parents us forsake, His mercy takes us up, Kindly vouchsafes his own to make, And he becomes our hope.

For us, He, in the wilderness, A table has prepar’d; Us, whom his love delights to bless, His providence to guard.

Known unto him are all our wants, And when we seek his face, His open hand our bodies feeds, He feeds our souls with grace.
