Who trusts in God, a strong abode

Author: J. Magdeburg Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #282 (1913) Topics: Temptation Lyrics: 1 Who trusts in God, a strong abode In heaven and earth possesses; Who looks in love to Christ above, No fear his heart oppresses. In Thee alone, dear Lord, we own Sweet hope and consolation; Our shield from foes, our balm for woes, Our great and sure salvation. 2 Though Satan's wrath beset our path, And worldly scorn assail us, While Thou art near we will not fear, Thy strength shall never fail us: Thy rod and staff shall keep us safe, And guide our steps forever; Nor shades of death, nor hell beneath, Our souls from Thee shall sever. 3 In all the strife of mortal life Our feet shall stand securely; Temptation's hour shall lose its power, For Thou shalt guard us surely. O God, renew, with heavenly dew, Our body, soul, and spirit, Until we stand at Thy right hand, Through Jesus' saving merit. Tune Title: [Who trusts in God, a strong abode]

I shall not fear the battle if you are by my side, nor wander from the pathway if you will be my guide. 2 O let me feel you near me; the world is ever near: I see the sights that dazzle, the tempting sounds I hear. My foes are ever near me, around me and within; but, Jesus, draw still nearer and shield my soul from sin! 3 O let me hear you speaking in accents clear and still, above the storms of passion, the murmurs of self-will. O speak to reassure me, to hasten or control; and speak to make me listen, O Guardian of my soul. 4 O Jesus, you have promised to all who follow you that where you are in glory your servants shall be too. O guide me, call me, draw me, uphold me to the end, when you in glory take me, my Savior and my Friend. Scripture: John 12:26 Languages: English Tune Title: NYLAND

Refrain: By and by, when the morning comes, When the saints of God are gathered home. We'll tell the story how we've overcome, For we'll understand it better by and by. 2 We are often destitute of the things that life demands, Want of food and want of shelter thirsty hills and barren lands, We are trusting in the Lord, and according to His word, We will understand it better by and by. [Refrain] 3 Trials dark on ev'ry hand, and we cannot understand All the ways that God would lead us to that blessed Promised Land; But He guides us with His eye, and we'll follow till we die. For we'll understand it better by and by. [Refrain] 4 Temptations, hidden snares often take us unawares, And our hearts are made to bleed for many a thoughtless word or deed, And we wonder why the test when we try to do our best. But we'll understand it better by and by. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: BY AND BY

Refrain: No, never alone, No, never alone– He promised never to leave me, Never to leave me alone; No, never alone, No, never alone; He promised never to leave me, Never to leave me alone. 2 The world’s fierce winds are blowing– Temptation’s sharp and keen; I have a peace in knowing My Savior stands between; He stands to shield me from danger When all my friends are gone: He promised never to leave me, Never to leave me alone. [Refrain] 3 When in affliction’s valley I tread the road of care, My Savior helps me carry The cross so heavy to bear; Though all around me is darkness And earthly joys are flown, My Savior whispers His promise: Never to leave me alone. [Refrain] 4 He died on Calv'ry's mountain, For me they pierced His side, For me He opened that fountain, The crimson, cleansing tide; For me He’s waiting in glory Upon His heavenly throne: He promised never to leave me, Never to leave me alone.

At the Name of Jesus
