Lord Cowper

Famous quotes containing the words lord and/or cowper:

    The Lord is thy keeper; the Lord is thy shade upon thy right hand.
    The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.
    The Lord shall preserve thee from all evil; he shall preserve thy
    soul.
    The Lord shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.
    Bible: Hebrew Psalm CXXI (l. CXXI, 5–8)

    Here may we prove the pow’r of pray’r,
    To strengthen faith, and sweeten care;
    To teach our faint desires to rise,
    And bring all heav’n before our eyes.
    —William Cowper (1731–1800)
