Who Trusts in God, a Strong Abode

Author: Joachim Magdeburg; Anonymous; Benjamin H. Kennedy; Edward H. Bickersteth Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #7700 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1. Who trusts in God, a strong abode In Heav’n 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 forever; 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. Languages: English Tune Title: BISHOPGARTH

Ask, And Ye Shall Receive

Author: Mrs. Havens Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #14832 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: O praying one, who long has prayed Lyrics: 1 O praying one, who long has prayed, And yet no answer heard, Have ye been sometimes half afraid God might not keep His word? Seems prayer to fall on deafened ears? Does Heav’n seem blind and dumb? Is hope deferred? Believe—believe— The answer time will come! 2 Ask what ye will—His word is true, His power is all divine; Ye cannot test His love too far; His utmost shall be thine. God does not mock believing prayer; Ye shall not go unfed! He gives no serpent for a fish, Nor gives He stones for bread. 3 Thy inmost longings may be told; The hopes that turned to shame, The empty life, the thwarted plans; The good that never came. Say not, The promise is not mine, God did not hear me pray; I prayed—I trusted fully—but The grave hath barred the way. 4 God heard Thee—He hath not forgot, Faith shall at length prevail! Yea—know it! Not one smallest jot Of all His word can fail. For if ye truly have believed, Not vain hath been thy prayer! As God is true, thy hope shall come— Sometime, some way, somewhere.
