Put all your trust in God

Author: John Wesley (1703-1791); Paul Gerhardt (1607-1676) Appears in 35 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 12:12 Lyrics: 1 Put all your trust in God, in duty's path go on; walk in his strength with faith and hope, so shall your work be done. Give to the winds your fears; hope, and be undismayed; God hears your sighs and counts your tears, God shall lift up your head. 2 Through waves, and clouds, and storms he gently clears your way; await his time; so shall this night soon end in joyful day. Leave to his sovereign sway to choose and to command; then you shall marvel at his way how wise, how strong his hand! 3 You see our weakness, Lord; our hearts are known to you: give strength to every failing hand and keep our footsteps true. Let us, in life, in death, your steadfast truth declare, confessing, with our final breath, your love and guardian care.

Author: F. Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Appears in 7 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 12:28 Lyrics: 1 Pray for the church afflicted and oppressed, for all who suffer for the gospel's sake, that Christ may show us how to serve them best in that one kingdom Satan cannot shake. But how much more than us they have to give, who by their dying show us how to live! 2 Pray for Christ's dissidents, who daily wait, as Jesus waited in the olive grove, the unjust trial, the pre-determined fate, the world's contempt for reconciling love. Shall all they won for us, at such a cost, be by our negligence or weakness lost? 3 Pray that if times of testing should lay bare what sort we are, who call ourselves his own, we may be counted worthy then to wear, with quiet fortitude, Christ's only crown: the crown that in his saints he wears again the crown of thorns that signifies his reign.
