TRUST, by                    
First Line: Though bare of bloom the broad-leafed fig
Last Line: And doth me to high place raise.
Subject(s): God; Jews; Praise; Judaism


THOUGH bare of bloom the broad-leafed fig
And vines no luscious clusters show,
And toil that sinewed arms bestow
On olive erst with berries big
Shall fail, and fields shall yield no meat,
Nor herds more in the stables low,
Nor wholly flocks in fold shall bleat,
I yet with joy the Lord shall greet,
With song my Strength and Saviour praise,
Who renders like to hinds my feet
And doth me to high place raise.
