39. Ye trembling souls! dismiss your fears

1 Ye trembling souls! dismiss your fears,
Be mercy all your theme;
Mercy, which like a river flows
In one continued stream.

2 Fear not the pow'rs of earth and hell:
God will these powers restrain;
His mighty arm their rage repel,
And make their efforts vain.

3 Fear not the want of outward good:
He still for his provide,
Grants them supplies of daily food,
And gives them heav'n beside.

4 Fear not, that he will e'er forsake,
Or leave his work undone:
He's faithful to his promises,
And faithful to his Son.

5 Fear not the terrors of the grave,
Nor death's tremendous sting:
He will from endless wrath preserve,
To endless glory bring.

6 You in his wisdom, pow'r, and grace,
May confidently trust:
His wisdom guides, his pow'r protects,
His grace rewards the just.
