62. Rejoicing Evermore

1 Tho’ troubles assail, and dangers affright,
Tho’ friends should all fail, and foes all unite,
Yet one thing secures us, whatever betide,
The promise assures us,—The Lord will provide.

Refrain:
Yes, I will rejoice, rejoice in the Lord;
Yes, I will rejoice, rejoice in the Lord;
Yes, I will rejoice, rejoice in the Lord,
Will joy in the God of my salvation.

2 The birds without barn or storehouse are fed;
From them let us learn to trust for our bread.
His saints what is fitting shall ne’er be denied
So long as ’tis written,—The Lord will provide. [Refrain]

3 When Satan appears to stop up our path,
And fills us with fears we triumph by faith;
He cannot take from us, (tho’ oft he has tried),
This heart cheering promise,—The Lord will provide. [Refrain]

4 He tells us we’re weak,— our hope is in vain,
The good that we seek we ne’er shall obtain;
But when such suggestions our graces have tried,
This answers all questions,—The Lord will provide. [Refrain]
