If our love were but more faithful, We should rest upon God's word; And our lives would be thanksgiving For the goodness of the Lord. 3 Troubled souls, why will you scatter Like a crowd of frightened sheep? Foolish hearts, why will you wander From a love so true and deep? There is welcome for the sinner, And more graces for the good; There is mercy with the Savior, There is healing in his blood.
