He paints the wayside flower,

He lights the evening star; The winds and waves obey Him, By Him the birds are fed; Much more to us, His children,

He gives our daily bread.-REF. 3 We thank Thee then, O Father, For all things bright and good, The seed-time and the harvest,

Our life, our health, our food;
Accept the gifts we offer

For all Thy love imparts,
And what Thou most desirest,
Our humble, thankful hearts.--REF.

Mathias Claudius
Tr. by Jane Montgomery Campbell 1868

STAR of peace, to wanderers weary!
Bright the beams that smile on me;
Cheer the pilot's vision dreary,

Far, far at sea.

2 Star of hope! gleam on the billow;
Bless the soul that sighs for Thee,
Bless the sailor's lonely pillow,
Far, far at sea.

3 Star of faith! when winds are mocking
All his toil, he flies to Thee;
Save him on the billows rocking,
Far, far at sea.

4 Star divine! O safely guide him,
Bring the wanderer home to Thee;
Sore temptations long have tried him,
Far, far at sea.

Jane Cross Simpson 1830
