Put all your trust in God

Author: John Wesley (1703-1791); Paul Gerhardt (1607-1676) Hymnal: CH4 #270 (2005) Lyrics: 1 Put all your trust in God, in duty's path go on; walk in his strength with faith and hope, so shall your work be done. Give to the winds your fears; hope, and be undismayed; God hears your sighs and counts your tears, God shall lift up your head. 2 Through waves, and clouds, and storms he gently clears your way; await his time; so shall this night soon end in joyful day. Leave to his sovereign sway to choose and to command; then you shall marvel at his way how wise, how strong his hand! 3 You see our weakness, Lord; our hearts are known to you: give strength to every failing hand and keep our footsteps true. Let us, in life, in death, your steadfast truth declare, confessing, with our final breath, your love and guardian care.

To Jerusalem proclaim: God shall take away your shame. Now get ready to recover; guilt and suffering are over. 2 Hear the herald's proclamation in the desert far and near, calling all to true repentance, telling that the Lord is near. Oh, that warning cry obey! For your God prepare a way. Let the valleys rise to greet him and the hills bow down to meet him. 3 Straighten out what has been crooked, make the roughest places plain. Let your hearts be true and humble, live as fits God's holy reign. Soon the glory of the Lord shall on earth be shed abroad. Human flesh shall surely see it, God is ready to decree it.
