Text: | We Are the Lord's |
Author: | C. J. P. Spitta |
Tune: | EIRENE |
Composer: | F. R. Havergal |
1. We are the Lord's: His all-sufficient merit,
Sealed on the cross to us this grace accords;
We are the Lord's, and all things shall inherit;
Whether we live or die, we are the Lord's.
2. We are the Lord's; then let us gladly tender
Our souls to Him, in deeds, not empty words;
Let heart and tongue and life combine to render
No doubtful witness that we are the Lord's.
3. We are the Lord's: no darkness brooding o'er us
Can make us tremble, whilst this star affords
A steady light along the path before us--
Faith's full assurance that we are the Lord's.
4. We are the Lord's: no evil can befall us
In the dread hour of life's fast loos'ning cords;
No pangs of death shall even then appall us;
Death we shall vanquish, for we are the Lord's.
