A jest and byword are they grown; God is with us, we are his own; Our vict'ry cannot fail. 4 Amen, Lord Jesus, grant our pray'r; Great Captain, now thine arm make bare, Fight for us once again; So shall thy saints and martyrs raise A mighty chorus to thy praise, World without end.

Trust and confidence; or, looking beyond present appearances

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 175 hymnals Topics: Fears and doubts removed First Line: Away my unbelieving fear Lyrics: 1 Away, my unbelieving fear! Let fear to me no more take place! My savior doth not yet appear, He hides the brightness of his face: But shall I therefore let him go, And basely to the tempter yield? No, in the strength of Jesus no! I never will give up the shield. 2 Altho' the vine its fruits deny, Altho' the olive yield no oil, The withering fig-tree droop and die, The field illude the tiller's toil; The empty stall no herd afford, And perish all the bleating race; Yet I will triumph in the Lord, The God of my salvation praise. 3 Away, each unbelieving fera, Let Fear to cheering hope give place; My Savior will at length appear, And shew the brightness of his face: Tho now my prospects all be crost, My blooming hopes cut off I see, Still will I in my Jesus trust, Whose boundless love can reach to me. 4 In hope, believing against hope, His promis'd mercy will I claim, His gracious word shall bear me up, To seek salvation in his name: Sure, my dear Savior, bring it nigh! My soul shall then outstrip the wind, On wings of love mount up on high, And leave the world and sin behind. Scripture: Habakkuk 3:17-18
