Text:Consider the Lilies
Tune:[Consider the lilies of the field]
Composer:E. H. Packard

82. Consider the Lilies

Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow;
Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow;
They toil not, they toil not,
They toil not, neither do they spin.
And yet I say unto you,
And yet I say unto you,
That even Solomon in all his glory
Was not arrayed, was not arrayed,
Like one of these, like one of these.
