[Severely tried by inward want]

He afterward hungered. —iv. 2.

Severely tried by inward want,
Let not thy hungry spirit faint,
Nor to the creature fly:
Man doth not live by bread alone;
If God pronounce the word, a stone
Shall all thy needs supply.
His love can find a thousand ways
Thy soul in its extreme distress
To succour and relieve:

132

Wait on thy God, be hungry still,
And let Him when and as He will
The lasting comfort give.
