The true God now abides with you. Let hell and Satan rage and chafe, Christ is your Brother--ye are safe. 5 Not one He will or can forsake Who Him his confidence doth make. Let all his wiles the Tempter try, You may his utmost powers defy. 6 Ye shall and must at last prevail; God's own ye are, ye cannot fail. To God forever sing your praise With joy and patience all your days. Amen. Topics: The Church Year Christmas Used With Tune: PUER NOBIS NASCITUR
