Representative Text

1 Jehovah is our strength,
And he shall be our sang;
We shall o’ercome at length
Although our foes be strong.
In vain does Satan then oppose,
For God is stronger than his foes.

2 The Lord our refuge is
And ever will remain;
Since he has made us his
He will our cause maintain.
In vain our enemies oppose,
For God is stronger than his foes.

3 The Lord our shepherd is;
He knows our every need,
And since we now are his,
His care our souls will feed.
In vain do sin and death oppose,
For God is stronger than his foes.

4 Our God our Father is;
Our names are on his heart;
We ever will be his,
He ne’er from us will part.
In vain the mightiest powers oppose,
For God is stronger than his foes.
