Verse 1
See the source of human care!
Man will not on God rely,
God who counts his every hair
Doth his every want supply,
Loves the works his hands have wrought;
None without his nod can fall,
Not a sparrow is forgot,
God preserves and cares for all.

Verse 2
Him we foolishly mistrust,
Him ungratefully forget,
Doubt if God be true and just,
Kind to give the promis’d meat:
But his word if sinners claim,
He cannot unfaithful prove,
He continues still the same
Wisdom, Power, and Truth, and Love.

Verse 3
Who his wisdom can surprize?
Who can overrule his power?
Providence with all its eyes
Guides us in the dangerous hour;
Every word of his is sure;
Mercy bears us in its hands;
Then we stand in Christ secure,
Long as our Supporter stands.
