Faith the victory hath won.

God hath heard His servant pray.

God's compassion never fails!
Bless the Lord, bless the Lord,
God hath verified His word.
Bless the Lord, bless the Lord,
God hath verified His word.

3 It is done, it is done!
All my doubts and fears are gone!
God hath heard and answered pray'r,
In my heart I feel it there.
It is done, it is done!
All my doubts and fears are gone.

All my doubts and fears are gone.

In my Saviour's promise sure!

To the Lord who answered me!
When in my distress I made
Supplication strong, and prayed,
Glory be, Glory be,
To the Lord He answered me.
Glory be, Glory be,
To the Lord He answered me.

7 Bless the Lord, Bless the Lord,
God is faithful to His word;
On His faithfulness I rest,
On a Saviour's merit blest,
Bless the Lord, Bless the Lord!
God doth comfort now afford.
Bless the Lord, Bless the Lord!
God doth comfort now afford.
