Peace

I have the fountain still. 5 Stripped of each earthly friend, I find them all in One, And peace and joy which never end, And heaven, in Christ, alone. Used With Tune: THATCHER

God helps the stranger in distress, the widow and the fatherless, and grants the prisoner glad release. 4 I'll praise you while you lend me breath, and, when my voice is lost in death, praise shall employ my noblest powers; my days of praise are never past while life and thought and being last or immortality endures.
