Who Trusts in God, a Strong Abode

  1. Who trusts in God, a strong abode
    in heav’n and earth possesses;
    who looks in love to Christ above,
    no fear his heart oppresses.
    In you alone, dear Lord, we own
    sweet hope and consolation:
    our shield from foes, our balm for woes,
    our great and sure salvation.
  2. Though Satan’s wrath beset our path,
    and worldly scorn assail us,
    while you are near we will not fear,
    your strength shall never fail us:
    your rod and staff shall keep us safe,
    and guide our steps forever;
    nor shades of death, nor hell beneath,
    our souls from you shall sever.
  3. In all the strife of mortal life
    our feet shall stand securely;
    temptation’s hour shall lose its pow’r,
    for you shall guard us surely.
    O God, renew, with heav’nly dew,
    our body, soul, and spirit,
    until we stand at your right hand,
    through Jesus’ saving merit.
