1. Blessèd Lord, in Thee is refuge,
Safety for my trembling soul;
Pow’r to lift my head when drooping
’Midst the angry billows’ roll.
|:I will trust Thee,:|
|:All my life Thou shalt control.:|
2. In the past, too, unbelieving,
’Midst the tempest I have been,
And my heart has slowly trusted
What my eyes have never seen.
|:Blessèd Jesus,:|
|:Teach me on Thine arm to lean.:|
3. O, for trust that brings the triumph
When defeat seems strangely near;
O, for faith that changes fighting
Into vict’ry’s ringing cheer!
|:Faith triumphant,:|
|:Knowing not defeat nor fear.:|
4. Faith triumphant— blessèd victory!
Every barrier swept away.
Heaven descending, joy and fullness,
Dawn of everlasting day!
|:Jesus only,:|
|:Him to love and Him obey.:|
