256. Praise the Savior, Ye Who Know Him

8,8,8,5.
by T. Kelly
1
Praise the Savior, ye who know Him,
 
Who can tell how much we owe Him?
 
Gladly let us render to Him
 
All we have and are.
2
Jesus is the name that charms us,
 
He for conflict fits and arms us,
 
Nothing moves and nothing harms us
 
While we trust in Him.
“<<A Song of degrees.>> They that trust in the Lord shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever.” (Psalm 125:1)
3
Trust in Him, ye saints, forever,
 
He is faithful, changing never;
 
Neither force nor guile can sever
 
Those He loves from Him.
“Commit thy way unto the Lord; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.” (Psalm 37:5)
4
Keep us, Lord, oh keep us cleaving
 
To Thyself and still believing,
 
Till the hour of our receiving
 
Promised joys with Thee.
5
Then we shall be where we would be,
 
Then we shall be what we should be;
 
Things that are not now nor could be
 
Soon shall be our own.
“For I am in a strait betwixt two, having a desire to depart, and to be with Christ; which is far better.” (Philippians 1:23)
“Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.” (1 John 3:2)
