Hymn 76
C.M.
1. Let heathens to their idols haste,
And worship wood or stone;
But my delightful lot is cast,
Where the true God is known.

2. His hand provides my constant food,
He fills my daily cup;
Much am I pleased with present good,
But more rejoice in hope.

3. God is my portion and my joy,
His counsels are my light;
He gives me sweet advice by day,
And gentle hints by night.

4. My soul would all her thoughts approve
To his all-seeing eye;
Not death, nor hell, my hope shall move,
While such a friend is nigh.
