284. Thou Hidden Source of Calm Repose
6-8s.
by C. Wesley
Thou hidden Source of calm repose!
Thou all-sufficient Love divine!
Our help and refuge from our foes,
Secure we are, for we are Thine;
And, lo! from guilt and grief and shame
We’re hidden, Savior, by Thy name.
Thy mighty name Salvation is,
And keeps our happy souls above;
Comfort it brings, and power and peace
And joy and everlasting love;
To us, with Thy dear name, are given
Pardon and holiness and heaven.
Jesus, our all in all Thou art,
Our rest in toil, our ease in pain;
The medicine of a broken heart;
Mid storms, our peace; in loss, our gain;
Our smile beneath the tyrant’s frown:
In shame, our glory and our crown.
In want, our plentiful supply;
In weakness, our almighty power;
In bonds, our perfect liberty;
Our refuge in temptation’s hour;
Our comfort, midst all grief and thrall,
Our life in death, our all in all.
“Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live.” (John 11:25)
“Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.” (Colossians 3:11)
