God Makes a Path
God makes a path, provides a guide,
And feeds in Wilderness;
His glorious Name, while breath remains,
Oh, that I may confess!
Lost many a time, I have had no guide,
No house, but hollow tree!
In stormy winter night, no fire,
No food, no company:
In Him, I found a house, a bed,
A table, company:
No cup so bitter, but ’s made sweet,
When God shall sweet’ning be.
