278 When we walk with the lord
Verse 4 Verse 1
Though vine nor fig-tree neither When we walk with the lord
Their wonted fruit should bear, In the light of His word What a glory he sheds
Though all the field should wither, on our way!
Nor flocks nor herds be there,
While we do His good will, he abides with us
Yet, God the same abiding, still, And with all who will trust and obey:
His praise shall tune my voice;
For, while in Him confiding, Chorus Trust and obey, for there's no other
I cannot but rejoice. 4/4 way To be happy in Jesus,
HOME But to trust and obey. 1/5
277 Through the love of God our
Saviour Verse 2
Verse 1 Not a shadow can rise,
Through the love of God our Saviour, Not a cloud in the skies,
All will be well; But His smile quickly drives it away;
Free and changeless is his favour, All, all is well:
Not a doubt nor a fear,
Precious is the blood that healed us; Not a sigh nor a tear, Can abide while we trust
Perfect is the grace that sealed us; and obey.
Strong the hand stretched forth to shield us,
All must be well. 1/3 Chorus Trust and obey, for there's no other
way To be happy in Jesus,
Verse 2 But to trust and obey. 2/5
Though we pass through tribulation,
All will be well; Verse 3
Christ has purchased full salvation, All, all is Not a burden we bear, Not a sorrow we share,
well: But our toil he doth richly repay;
Happy still in God confiding;
Fruitful, if in Christ abiding; Not a grief nor a loss,
Holy, through the Spirit's guiding; Not a frown nor a cross, But is blest if we trust
All must be well. 2/3 and obey.
Verse 3 Chorus Trust and obey, for there's no other
We expect a bright to-morrow; way To be happy in Jesus,
All will be well; But to trust and obey. 3/5
Faith can sing through days of sorrow,
All, all is well: Verse 4
But we never can prove
On our Father's love relying, The delights of His love
Jesus every need supplying, Until all on the altar we lay;
Then in living or in dying,
All must be well. 3/3 For the favour he shows, and the joy he
bestows, Are for them who will trust and obey.
