Hymn 172

Faithfulness.

L.M.

HE lives! he lives! and sits above, Forever interceding there; Who shall divide us from his love? Or what should tempt us to despair?

Shall persecution or distress? Shall famine, sword, or nakedness? He who hath loved us bears us through, And makes us more than conquerors too.

Faith hath an overcoming power; It triumphs in the dying hour: Christ is our life, our joy, our hope; Nor can we sink with such a prop.
