O Precious word the Saviour spake

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Hymnal Title: Church Hymn Book Lyrics: 1 O Precious word the Saviour spake, To his Disciples dear; Tho' you my friends, I must forsake, You need not doubt nor fear. 2 To my bless'd father I ascend, And leave you here below; I will remain your greatest fiend, And you shall find it true. 3 For that ye now lament and grieve, It answers for your good; The Holy Ghost shall you receive, The comforter from God. 4 Your souls shall be with grace endow'd: Your hearts abound with joy, Your fears shall vanish like a cloud! That with the winds do fly. 5 Ye shall reprove the world of sin, The sin of unbelief; Which evermore the cause has been, That men find no relief. 6 By faith in Jesus man is sav'd! Restor'd to God again; But unbelief keeps man enslav'd, And rivets Satan's chain. 7 My innocence and righteousness, Ye shall sufficient prove: When ye shall make the world confess That I do reign above. 8 The Prince of Darkness is condemn'd, With all his art and pow'r; And man is greatly to be blam'd To serve him any more. Topics: Fourth Sunday after Easter Scripture: John 16:5-15
