The Child Leans On Its Parent’s Breast,
Leaves There Its Cares, And Is At Rest;
The Bird Sits Singing By His Nest,
And Tells Aloud
His Trust In God, And So Is Blest
’Neath Every Cloud.
He Has No Store, He Sows No Seed;
Yet Sings Aloud, And Doth Not Heed;
By Flowing Stream Or Grassy Mead,
He Sings To Shame
Men, Who Forget, In Fear Of Need,
A Father’s Name.
The Heart That Trusts For Ever Sings,
And Feels As Light As It Had Wings;
A Well Of Peace Within It Springs:
Come Good Or Ill,
Whatever To-Day, To-Morrow Brings,
It Is His Will!
