| 1 Great comforts does the Saviour give, To those who in his word believe; He says the father will indeed, Grant to his Saints all they do need. 2 He bids us ask by faithful pray'r, And solemnly he doth declare; What e'er you ask in my bless'd name, Ye shall be sure to have the same! 3 God's word and promise never fail, All faithful pray'rs they must prevail; God's promises are not in vain, What e'er we need, we shall obtain. 4 God ever bows his gracious ear, The pray'rs of faithful souls to hear; Their times of troubles will be past And all their wants reliev'd at last. 5 When the Disciples were distress'd; With many doubts and fears oppress'd-- The Saviour bid them bear and wait, And patiently endure their fate. 6 To their great comforts they should find, That God was gracious, good and kind; And they should find he was their friend, Who made them happy in the end. 7 We join to pray in Jesus' name, For God will be to us the same; Such as he was in former days, Which we shall witness to his praise. | Church Hymn Book: consisting of newly composed hymns with the addition of hymns and psalms, from other authors, carefully adapted for the use of public worship, and many other occasions (1st ed.) #LXXXV (1816) |
