[Who murmur in the wilderness]

Our soul loatheth this light [Heb. vile] bread. —xxi. 5.

Who murmur in the wilderness
By daily wonders fed,
May loathe the comforts of Thy grace
As despicable bread:
But nourish'd still with fresh supplies
Of blessings from above,
The more we taste, the more we prize
The manna of Thy love.
