| God is not a man, that He should lie; neither the son of man, that He should repent: hath He said, and shall He not do it? or hath He spoken, and shall He not make it good? Behold, I have received commandment to bless: and He hath blessed; and I cannot reverse it. (Num. 23:19‑20) |
| The Lord hath spoken it. (Isa. 22:25) |
| The word of our God shall stand forever. (Isa. 40:8) |
Though dark be our way, since God is our guide, ’Tis ours to obey; ’tis His to provide: Though cisterns be broken, and creatures all fail, The word He has spoken shall surely prevail. |
His love in times past forbids us to think He’ll leave us at last in trouble to sink: The Lamb in His glory is ever in view, The pledge and the proof He will help us quite through. |
