881. Christ Jesus Hath the Power

1. Christ Jesus hath the pow217;r,
The power to forgive,
The pow217;r to quicken whom He will,
And make the sinner live.
Christ Jesus hath the pow217;r,
O tell it far and near!
O bring to Him your guilty heart,
And grace shall banish fear!

Refrain
Christ Jesus hath the pow217;r,
The pow217;r of God He wields!
Christ Jesus hath the pow217;r,
My heart surrender yields!
Christ Jesus hath the pow217;r,
I trust Him evermore!
Christ Jesus hath the pow217;r,
I worship and adore!

2. Christ Jesus hath the pow217;r,
The power to renew,
The pow217;r to cleanse your heart from sin,
And make you wholly true.
Christ Jesus hath the pow217;r
For evermore to keep;
O none can pluck you from His hand,
Or rob Him of His sheep! [Refrain]

3. Christ Jesus hath the pow217;r,
The power to console,
The pow217;r to carry all your care212;
On Him your burdens roll.
Christ Jesus hath the pow217;r,
To wipe the tear away;
O place in Him your confidence!
O trust Him, and obey! [Refrain]

4. Christ Jesus hath the pow217;r,
The power to destroy,
The pow217;r to bruise your enemy
Who would your soul annoy.
Christ Jesus hath the pow217;r,
When on your dying bed,
To give your soul the victory,
The pow217;r to raise the dead! [Refrain]
