The Cyber Hymnal ‎#11701

11701. In Every Trying Hour

1 In every trying hour
My soul to Jesus flies;
I trust in His almighty power,
When swelling billows rise.

2 His comforts bear me up;
I trust a faithful God;
The sure foundation of my hope
Is in my Savior’s blood.

3 Loud hallelujahs sing
To our Redeemer’s name,
In joy or sorrow—life or death—
His love is still the same.
