God, who ordain'd our marriage state, Provides for us in ev'ry fate, To him is known all we do need, Our wants he will supply indeed.

Verse 3

Should he appear to hide his face, Yet the rich bounties of his grace Are ever present, ever near, Tho' they do not always appear.

Verse 4

The truth of this we may be taught: The miracles that Jesus wrought In Cana-town of Galilee, Sufficient proof thereof may be.

His counsels and his deep decrees No eye of human creature sees; His wond'rous ways are best reveal'd, Where his dear promise is fulfill'd.

Verse 6

O let us then by faith endure! Till all our trials shall be o'er, Then by experience we shall know What Jesus for his friends will do.
