531 What our Father does is well

1 What our Father does is well: Blessed truth! His children tell! Though He send, for plenty, want, Though the harvest store be scant, Yet we rest upon His love, Seeking better things above. 2 What our Father does is well: Shall the wilful heart rebel, If a blessing He withhold In the field, or in the fold? Is He not Himself to be All our store eternally? 3 What our Father does is well: Though He sadden hill and dell, Upward yet our praises rise For the strength His word supplies, He has called us sons of God; Can we murmur at His rod? 4 What our Father does is well: May the thought within us dwell; Though nor milk nor honey flow In our barren Canaan now, God can save us in our need, God can bless us, God can feed. 5 Therefore unto Him we raise Hymns of glory, songs of praise; To the Father and the Son And the Spirit, Three in One, Honor, might, and glory be, Now and through eternity.
