My Faith Looks Up to Thee
Author: Ray Palmer Appears in 2,259 hymnals Topics: Faith Lyrics: 1 My faith looks up to thee,
Thou Lamb of Calvary,
Saviour divine!
Now hear me while I pray,
Take all my guilt away,
O let me from this day
Be wholly thine.
2 May thy rich grace impart
Strength to my fainting heart,
My zeal inspire;
As thou hast died for me,
O may my love to thee
Pure, warm, and changeless be,
A living fire.
3 While life’s dark maze I tread,
And griefs around me spread,
Be thou my guide;
Bid darkness turn to day,
Wipe sorrow’s tears away,
Nor let me ever stray
From thee aside.
4 When ends life’s transient dream,
When death’s cold sullen stream
Shall o’er me roll;
Blest Saviour, then, in love,
Fear and distrust remove;
O bear me safe above,
A ransomed soul!
Amen. Used With Tune: [My faith looks up to thee]

On Christ the solid rock I stand
Author: Edward Mote Appears in 1,109 hymnals Topics: Confession of Faith; Faith Assurance of; Faith Justification by; Faith Walking by; Faith Living by; Salvation By faith First Line: My hope is built on nothing less Lyrics: 1 My hope is built on nothing less
Than Jesus' blood and righteousness;
I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
But wholly lean on Jesus' name:
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand;
All other ground is sinking sand.
2 When darkness seems to vail His face,
I rest on His unchanging grace;
In every high and stormy gale,
My anchor holds within the veil;
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand;
All other ground is sinking sand.
3 His oath, His covenant, and blood,
Support me in the whelming flood;
When all around my soul gives way,
He then is all my hope and stay;
On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
All other ground is sinking sand;
All other ground is sinking sand.
Amen.

His trust in God forever;
He dwells within the secret place
Where foes may enter never.
God is my Refuge and my Stay,
My God who e'er directs me.
In dangers, fears, and plagues that slay,
His wings shall still protect me.
I will not fear
When God, my Shield, is ever near.
2 Though thousands at my side may fall,
Ten thousand near me stumble,
On Thee, my Saviour, will I call,
Thou carest for the humble.
I will not fear the arrow's flight,
Nor yet the dark night's terror:
Thy saints are precious in Thy sight,
Thou keepest them from error,
For Thou hast sent
Thine angels bright to guard my tent.
3 "He loveth Me," thus saith the Lord,
"Therefore will I uphold him;
Because he waits upon My Word,
With love will I enfold him.
His enemies shall rage in vain,
No evil shall come near him;
His prayers with Me acceptance gain,
Before he calls, I'll hear him.
His days I'll bless
With joy, and peace, and righteousness."

Is laid for your faith in his excellent Word!

Who unto the Savior for refuge have fled?

For I am your God and will still give you aid;
I’ll strengthen you, help you, and cause you to stand,
Upheld by my righteous, omnipotent hand.
3 When through fiery trials your pathway will lie,
My grace, all-sufficient, will be your supply.
The flames will not hurt you; I only design
Your dross to consume and your gold to refine.
4 Throughout all their lifetime my people will prove
My sov’reign, eternal, unchangeable love;
And then, when gray hairs will their temples adorn,
Like lambs they will still in my bosom be borne. Used With Tune: FOUNDATION Text Sources: John Rippon, A Selection of Hymns, 1787, alt.

Who trusts in God, a strong abode
Author: Joachim Magdeburg; Joachim Magdeburg; Benjamin Hall Kennedy; William Walsham How Appears in 68 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life Faith Lyrics: 1 Who trusts in God, a strong abode
In heaven and earth possesses;
Who looks in love to Christ above,
No fear his heart oppresses.
In Thee alone, dear Lord, we own
Sweet hope and consolation;
Our shield from foes, our balm for woes,
Our great and sure salvation.
2 Though Satan's wrath beset our path
And worldly scorn assail us,
While Thou art near we will not fear;
Thy strength shall never fail us.
Thy rod and staff shall keep us safe,
And guide our steps for ever;
Nor shades of death, nor hell beneath,
Our souls from Thee shall sever.
3 In all the strife of mortal life
Our feet shall stand securely;
Temptation's hour shall lose its power,
For Thou shalt guard us surely.
O God, renew, with heavenly dew,
Our body, soul, and spirit,
Until we stand at Thy right hand,
Through Jesus' saving merit.
Amen. Used With Tune: CONSTANCE
