274. The Afflicted secure in Christ

1 The Lord in Zion reigns,
And will his people keep;
’Tis he the universe sustains,
And well secures his sheep.

2 Though with afflictions sore
He may them exercise;
Yet still his hand they shall adore,
And still his love shall prize.

3 Should poverty, and loss
Of every kind of good,
Conspire to make our weighty cross,
Our helper still is God.

4 May we for ever trust
And glory in his name;
Jesus, the faithful, true, and just,
For ever is the same!
