So all-sufficient is bare kindliness of tone and speech to the unsensitive nature.

O GOD, OUR HELP IN AGES PAST O God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years for to come, Our shelter from the stormy blast, And our eternal home: Under the shadow of Thy throne, Thy saints have dwelt secure; Sufficient is Thine arm alone, And our defense is sure.

'Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof!'
