Classic Poem

‘This day our daily bread,’—
O heart, be satisfied;
Enough for thee if daily need
Be day by day supplied.

This day our daily bread,—
Be simple wants thy wealth:
The modesty of thy desires
Shall be thy spirit's health.

This day thy daily bread,—
And He who doth provide
The lesser things will surely add
All thou dost need beside.

This day our daily bread,—
So shall the simple prayer
Keep thee in daily thought of him
Who makes thy loaf his care.
