In some way or other The Lord will provide; It may not be my way, It may not be thy way, And yet in His own way, The Lord will provide.
At some time or other The Lord will provide; It may not be my time, It may not be thy time, And yet in His own time, The Lord will provide.
Despond then no longer, The Lord will provide; And this be the token— No word He hath spoken Was ever yet broken: “The Lord will provide.”
March on, then, right boldly, The sea shall divide; The pathway made glorious, With shoutings victorious, We’ll join in the chorus: “The Lord will provide.”
