A safe stronghold our God is still

Author: Thomas Carlyle (1795-1881); Martin Luther (1483-1546) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Appears in 68 hymnals Scripture: Job 1:6-22 Lyrics: 1 A safe stronghold our God is still, a trusty shield and weapon; he'll keep us clear from all the ill that hath us now o'ertaken. The ancient prince of hell hath risen with purpose fell; strong mail of craft and power he weareth in this hour; on earth is not his fellow. 2 With force of arms we nothing can, full soon were we down-ridden; but for us fights the proper Man, whom God himself hath bidden. Ask ye who is this same? Christ Jesus is his name, the Lord Sabaoth's Son; he, and no other one, shall conquer in the battle. 3 And were this world all devils o'er, and watching to devour us, we lay it not to heart so sore; they cannot overpower us. And let the prince of ill look grim as e'er he will, he harms us not a whit; for why? his doom is writ; a word shall quickly slay him. 4 God's word, for all their craft and force, one moment will not linger, but, spite of hell, shall have its course; 'tis written by his finger. And, though they take our life, goods, honour, children, wife, yet is their profit small; these things shall vanish all: the city of God remaineth.

Job 1:21: Naked as from the earth we came

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Job 1:21 First Line: Naked as from the earth we came Lyrics: Naked as from the earth we came, and entered life at first; Naked we to the earth return, and mix with kindred dust. Whate’er we fondly call our own belongs to heav’n’s great Lord; The blessings lent us for a day are soon to be restored. ’Tis God that lifts our comforts high, or sinks them in the grave: He gives; and, when he takes away, he takes but what he gave. Then, ever blessed be his name! his goodness swelled our store; His justice but resumes its own; ’tis ours still to adore.

I have the fountain still. 5 Stripped of each earthly friend, I find them all in One, And peace and joy which never end, And heaven, in Christ, alone.
