9250. The Lord's My Redeemer

1 The Lord’s my Redeemer, my stronghold is He;
My refuge to which in all trials I flee.
He holds me, He helps me, He comfort bestows;
He calms each rude current which over me flows.

Refrain:
The Lord’s my Redeemer, my strong tower is He;
My refuge to which in all trials I flee.

2 He shields me when sounds of the tempest I hear,
He hides me when swift rolling billows are near.
He cheers me in darkness, surrounded by foes,
And comforts my soul with the thought that He knows. [Refrain]

3 Oh! Savior, Redeemer, my helper and friend,
On Thee in all conflict my soul doth depend.
Direct me, control me, perfect me, I pray,
Till with Thee in glory I’ll praise Thee for aye. [Refrain]
