1 Have faith in God!
What though thou canst not understand?
All things attend thy Lord’s command;
Rejoice because He is so great;
Be calm and wait.

2 Have faith in God!
“Ah but,” thou say’st, “the cloud is dense;
Faith reckons not by sight, by sense,
But by His word. Than cloud or night
More strong the light.

3 Have faith in God!
Not in thyself, or thou shalt fail,
For strength of arm has no avail
‘Gainst spirit foes. In God alone
Is victory known.

4 Have faith in God!
The hosts of light shall guard thee round
From open heavens, thy Lord be found
Far better than thy highest thought.
Be strong, fear not!
