Author: L. E. J. Appears in 8 hymnals First Line: In tender compassion and wonderful love Refrain First Line: The raven he feedeth, then why should I fear Lyrics: 1 In tender compassion and wonderful love, The Father looks down from on high; He knoweth the raven hath need of its food, And heareth in mercy its cry. Refrain: The raven he feedeth, then why should I fear, To the heart of the Father his children are dear; So, if the way darkens or storms gather o’er, I’ll simply look upward and trust him the more. 2 His arm is abundantly able to save, His eye is a guide to my feet; Since love sought and found me, I constantly dwell With him in companionship sweet. [Refrain] 3 No need have I ever to trouble my breast, Or fear what the morrow may bring; The heart of the Father is planning my way, And I am the child of a King.
