Omnipotently near; Lo! He holds thee by the hand, And banishes thy fear; Shadows with His wings thy head; Guards from all impending harms; Round thee and beneath are spread The everlasting arms. 2 God shall bless thy going out, Shall bless thy coming in; Kindly compass thee about, And guard from every sin. Lean upon thy Father's breast; He thy quiet spirit keeps; Rest in Him, securely rest; Thy Guardian never sleeps. 3 O, my soul, unceasing pray, And in thy God confide! He our faltering steps shall stay, Nor suffer us to slide: He is still our sure defence, We his ceaseless care shall prove, Kept by watchful Providence And ever-waking love. 254. S. M. Moravian. Reliance. 1 Commit thou all thy griefs And ways into His hands, To His sure trust and tender care, Who earth and heaven commands; 2 Who points the clouds their course, Whom winds and seas obey; He shall direct thy wandering feet, He shall prepare thy way. 3 No profit canst thou gain By self-consuming care; To Him commend thy cause,--His ear Attends the softest prayer. 4 Then on the Lord rely, So safe shall thou go on; Fix on His work thy steadfast eye, So shall thy work be done. 255. C. M. Alford. God Our Refuge. Psalm xlvi. 1 God is our refuge and our strength, When trouble's hour is near; A very present help is He; Therefore we will not fear. 2 Although the pillars of the earth Shall clean removed be, The very mountains carried forth, And cast into the sea; 3 Although the waters rage and swell, So that the earth shall shake; Yea, and the solid mountain roots Shall with the tempest quake; 4 There is a river that makes glad The city of our God; The tabernacle's holy place Of the Most High's abode. 5 The Lord is in the midst of her, Removed she shall not be; Because the Lord our God himself Shall help her speedily. 6 The Lord our strength and refuge is, When trouble's hour is near; A very present help is He;
