Страница 4 - And though this world, with devils filled, Should threaten to undo us, We will not fear, for God hath willed His truth to triumph through us. The Prince of Darkness grim,— We tremble not for him; His rage we can endure, For lo! his doom is sure; One little word shall fell him.
Страница 4 - Did we in our own strength confide, our striving would be losing; Were not the right Man on our side, the Man of God's own choosing: Dost ask who that may be? Christ Jesus, it is He; Lord Sabaoth, His Name, from age to age the same, And He must win the battle.

Oh ! on that day, that wrathful day, When man to judgment wakes from clay, Be THOU the trembling sinner's stay, Though heaven and earth shall pass away ! HUSH'D is the harp — the Minstrel...
Страница 4 - His truth to triumph through us. The prince of darkness grim, We tremble not for him — His rage we can endure, For lo! his doom is sure: One little word shall fell him. That word above all earthly pow'rs, No thanks to them, abideth; The Spirit and the gifts are ours Through Him who with us sideth. Let goods and kindred go, This mortal life also — The body they may kill; God's truth abideth still: His kingdom is forever.

Страница 38 - Spurn not the call to life and light ; Regard in time the warning kind ; That call thou may'st not always slight, And yet the gate of mercy find. 5.

Страница 25 - I ASK not wealth, but power to take And use the things I have aright ; Not years, but wisdom that shall make My life a profit and delight. 2 I ask not that for me the plan Of good and ill be set aside, But that the common lot of man Be nobly borne and glorified.
