LIV. And are we yet alive

1 And are we yet alive,
And see each other's face?
Glory and praise to Jesus give
For His redeeming grace.

2 Preserv'd by pow'r divine,
To feel salvation here;
Again in Jesus' name we join,
And in his sight appear.

3 What troubles have we seen,
What conflicts have we past;
Fightings without and fears within,
Since we assembled last.

4 But out of all, the Lord
Hath brought us by his love;
And still he does his help afford,
And hides our life above.

5 Then let us make our boast,
Of his redeeming pow'r;
Which saves us to the uttermost,
Till we can sin no more.

6 Let us take up the cross,
Till we the crown obtain;
And gladly reckon all things lost,
So we may Jesus gain.
