Christ Jesus, it is he; Lord Sabaoth his name, from age to age the same, and he must win the battle. 3 And though this world, with devils filled, should threaten to undo us, we will not fear, for God hath willed the truth to triumph through us: the prince of darkness grim, we tremble not for him; his rage we can endure, for lo! his doom is sure, one little word shall fell him. 4 That word above all earthly powers, no thanks to them, abideth; the Spirit and the gifts are ours through Christ, who with us sideth: let goods and kindred go, this mortal life also; the body they may kill: God's truth abideth still, God's kingdom is forever.

In holy contemplation

Author: William Cowper Meter: 7.6 Appears in 20 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life Trust in God and Providence Lyrics: 1 In holy contemplation We sweetly now pursue The theme of God's salvation, And find it ever new. Set free from present sorrow, We cheerfully can say, Let the unknown to-morrow Bring with it what it may. 2 It can bring with it nothing, But He will bear us through; Who gives the lilies clothing Will clothe His people too. Beneath the spreading heavens No creature but is fed; And He who feeds the ravens Will give His children bread. 3 Though vine nor fig tree neither Their wonted fruit should bear; Though all the field should wither, Nor flocks nor herds be there: Yet God the same abiding, His praise shall tune my voice; For while in Him confiding, I cannot but rejoice.

They who trust with faith unshaken by their God are not forsaken and will keep a dauntless heart. 2 He who to this day has fed me and to many joys has led me, is and ever shall be mine. He who always gently schools me and who daily guides and rules me, will remain my help divine. 3 When with sorrow I am stricken, hope my heart anew will quicken, all my longing shall be stilled. To God's lovingkindness tender soul and body I surrender, for on him alone I build. 4 Well he knows what best to grant me; all the longing hopes that haunt me, joy and sorrow, have their day. I shall doubt your wisdom never; as God wills, so be it ever; I commit to him my way. 5 If my days on earth he lengthen, God my weary steps will strengthen; all my trust in him I place. Things of earth are not abiding, like a stream away are gliding; safe I anchor in his grace.
