Who Trusts in God, a Strong Abode

Author: Joachim Magdeburg; Anon.; Benjamin H. Kennedy; William Walsham How Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 68 hymnals Topics: Fear 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 you 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 you are near we will not fear, your strength shall never fail us: your rod and staff shall keep us safe, and guide our steps forever; nor shades of death, nor hell beneath, our souls from you shall sever. 3 In all the strife of mortal life our feet shall stand securely; temptation's hour shall lose its pow'r, for you shall guard us surely. O God, renew, with heav'nly dew, our body, soul, and spirit, until we stand at your right hand, through Jesus' saving merit. Scripture: 2 Samuel 22:3 Used With Tune: CONSTANCE

Oft he forgave their sins, Nor would destroy their race; And oft he made his vengeance known, When they abused his grace. Exalt the Lord our God, Whose grace is still the same; Still he's a God of holiness, And jealous for his name. Scripture: Psalm 99
