[Howe'er Thou may'st to-morrow deal]

Is it not good, if peace and truth be in my days? —xx. 19.

Howe'er Thou may'st to-morrow deal
With a degenerate race,
Thy goodness, Lord, to-day we feel,
Thy present goodness praise;
Thy truth in this our day we know,
Thy people's peace we prove,
And hand in hand through life we go
To' enjoy Thine heavenly love.
