All We Need

When Pharoah’s heart was hardened
Against the Lord’s command,
He made the labor harder
Of those who built his land.
He told the weary Hebrews
That they must gather straw;
“Go find your own,” he told them
And made his hatred law.

Unlike the wicked Pharoah,
God gives His children tasks
And then provides materials
For anything He asks.
He gives the strength that’s needed,
The grace to make it through;
Provides for each assignment
And shows us what to do.

Lord, thank You for Your kindness
Providing all we need,
And giving us such mercy
In all that You’ve decreed.
Please help us serve with gladness
And praise You day by day
For guiding and providing
In such a gracious way.
