Author: William H. Bathurst Appears in 711 hymnals First Line: Oh, for a faith that will not shrink Lyrics: 1 Oh, for a faith that will not shrink
Though pressed by every foe,
That will not tremble on the brink
Of any earthly woe!--
2 That will not murmur nor complain
Beneath the chastening rod,
But, in the hour of grief and pain,
Will lean upon its God;--
3 God whom we serve, our God, can save,
Can damp the scorching flame,
Can build an ark, can smooth the wave,
For such as love his name.
4 Lord! if thine arm support us still
With its eternal strength,
We shall o'ercome the mightiest ill,
And conquerors prove at length. Topics: Ark of God; Christians Graces; Communion of Saints At Lord's Table Scripture: Isaiah 43:2 Used With Tune: FULBERT
