" Cast thy bread upon the waters," Ye who have but scant supply ; Angel eyes will watch above it, You shall find it by-and-by. He who in His righteous balance Doth each human action weigh, Will your sacrifice remember, Will your loving deeds repay.
2. âCast thy bread upon the waters," Sad and weary, worn with care ; Often sitting in the shadow---- Have you not a crumb to spare ? Can you not to those around you Sing some little song of hope, As you look with longing vision Through faith's mighty telescope ?
3. " Cast thy bread upon the waters," You who have abundant store ; It may float on many a billow, It may strand on many a shore. You may think it lost for ever ; But, as sure as God is true, In this life, or in the other, It will yet return to you.
