Christ Never Fails

Author: Maud Frazer Hymnal: Alexander's Hymns No. 3 #181 (1915) First Line: Christ never yet has failed a soul Refrain First Line: Christ never fails, He never fails Lyrics: 1 Christ never yet has failed a soul Whose trust in Him was stayed; No contrite one for pard’ning grace Has ever vainly pray’d. Refrain: Christ never fails, He never fails, His love is just the same. Today He offers pard’ning grace AS when to earth He came. 2 “I called on Christ in time of need, And lo, He heard my pray’r,” This is the witness of His truth That countless thousands bear. [Refrain] 3 Christ never yet has failed a soul, Unbroken is His vow; His word is “come, I’ll not cast out,” Oh, claim that promise now. [Refrain] 4 Christ never yet has failed a soul, How sweetly on His breast, Their labors o’er, without a fear His lov’d ones sink to rest. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Christ never yet has failed a soul]
