Keep the Wires Connected

Author: L. S. L. Hymnal: New Songs of Pentecost #42 (1916) First Line: Waves of care and trouble may my life assail Refrain First Line: Keep the wires connected and the pow'r will come Lyrics: 1 Waves of care and trouble may my life assail, They may crowd upon me, yet never shall prevail; For I love my Saviour and trust in Him alone, And keep the wires connected with the heav’nly throne. Refrain: Keep the wires connected and the pow’r will come, Pray’r thro’ broken wires can never reach the throne; Live for Christ and life will be a triumph song, Keep the wires connected all the whole day long. 2 If my life is given o’er to Christ’s control, And the heav’nly fire is burning in my soul; All the wires connected and strong in faith and love, Then God will send the power from His throne above. [Refrain] 3 Flowing like a river, I have peace and joy, Petty cares and trials, cannot my soul annoy; For I hear this message from God’s eternal throne, “My grace shall be sufficient,” Thou shalt overcome. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Waves of care and trouble may my life assail]
