LIKE AS A MOTHER COMFORTETH

Words: William M. Runyan
Music: John B. Dykes

Like as a mo?ther com?fort?eth
O words of gen?tle worth!
So will I com?fort you, de?clares
The Lord of all the earth.

He bends in faith?ful watch?ful?ness;
He slum?bers not nor sleeps;
Above His trust?ing child the Lord
A con?stant vi?gil keeps.

He pa?tient is, as mo?thers are
Who love their child?ren well;
Our faults and fail?ings He for?gives;
His mer?cies—who can tell!

Like as a mo?ther, grant, O God,
This like?ness e’er may be
A ho?ly sym?bol to de?clare
The love that dwells in Thee.
