Oh, For a Faith That will not Shrink
Author: William Hiley Bathurst, 1796-1877 Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #272b (1901) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Oh, for a faith that will not shrink,
Though prest by many a foe;
That will not tremble on the brink
Of poverty or woe;
2 That will not murmur nor complain
Beneath the chastening rod;
But in the hour of grief or pain
Can lean upon its God.
3 A faith that shines more bright and clear
When tempests rage without;
That when in danger knows no fear,
In darkness feels no doubt:
4 That bears unmoved the world’s dread frown,
Nor heeds its scornful smile;
That sin's wild ocean cannot drown,
Nor Satan’s arts beguile:
5 A faith that keeps the narrow way
Till life’s last hour is fled,
And with a pure and heavenly ray
Lights up a dying bed.
6 Lord, give us such a faith as this,
And then whate’er may come,
We’ll taste e’en here the hallowed bliss
Of an eternal home.
Amen. Topics: Faith and Justification Languages: English Tune Title: LAMBETH
