Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5555 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.7.7.6 First Line: None is like Jeshurun’s God Lyrics: 1 None is like Jeshurun’s God,
So great, so strong, so high;
Lo! He spreads His wings abroad,
He rides upon the sky!
Israel, His first born son,
God, th’eternal God is thine,
See Him in thy help come down,
The excellence divine.
2 Thee the great Jehovah deigns
To succor and defend;
Thee th’eternal God sustains,
Thy maker, and thy friend;
Sinner, what hast thou to dread?
Safe from all impending harms,
God hath underneath thee spread
His everlasting arms.
3 God is thine; disdain to fear
The enemy within;
God shall in thy flesh appear,
And make an end to sin;
God the man of sin shall slay,
Fill thee with triumphant joy;
God shall thrust him out, and say
"Destroy them all, destroy."
4 All the struggle then is o’er,
And wars and fightings cease;
Israel then shall sin no more,
But dwell in perfect peace;
All his enemies are gone,
Sin shall have in him no part,
Israel now shall dwell alone
With Jesus in his heart.
5 In a land of corn and wine
His lot shall be below;
Comforts there, and blessings join,
And milk and honey flow;
Jacob’s well is in his soul,
Gracious dew his heavens distill,
Fill his soul already full,
And shall forever fill.
6 Blest, O Israel, art thou,
What people is like thee?
Saved from sin by Jesus now,
Thou art and still shalt be.
Jesus is thy seven-fold shield,
Jesus is thy flaming sword;
Earth and hell and sin shall yield
To God’s almighty Word.
7 God’s almighty Word shall stand,
Thine enemies shall fall,
Fade away at His command,
And sink and perish all;
Liars shall they all be found,
All who cried, "It cannot be!
Sin must always keep its ground
Must always dwell in thee."
8 Christ shall make Thee free indeed,
When He appears within;
Thou on self and pride shalt tread,
On all the strength of sin;
Thou shalt more than conquer it,
Thou shalt see it all depart,
See it dead beneath thy feet,
No longer in thy heart.
9 God, the gracious God and true,
Hath spoke the faithful Word;
He the mighty work shall do,
Our trust is in the Lord:
He the mountain shall remove,
He the sinner shall restore;
He shall me perfect in love,
And I shall sin no more. Languages: English Tune Title: JESHURUN
