Providence

Sep 26 2023 - Eric Buresh

Providence, God’s guiding hand, 
Satisfying needs across the land, 
He knows each sparrow's gentle flight, 
And paints the dawn with colors bright. 

He heals the broken, humble soul, 
Restores the wounded heart to whole, 
His wisdom, deeper than the sea, 
Perfectly understanding all mystery. 

With care He counts the stars above, 
Yet searches hearts with tender love, 
The brokenhearted, He draws near, 
And holds them as His treasure dear. 

The mighty winds, His word obey, 
And galaxies His orders sway, 
Yet in the simple, contrite heart, 
He finds His chosen, set apart. 

He feeds the hungry, clothes the earth, 
Brings forth new life, gives second birth, 
His provision is a constant stream, 
A whispered promise in every sunlit gleam. 

So let us raise a joyful song, 
To God, to whom all praise belongs, 
His providence, a boundless sea, 
I cannot help but shout with glee.
