God says whosoever
Believes on His Son,
Has pardon obtained
And a new life begun;
His sins blotted out,
Not by aught he has done,
But thro’ faith in the Word of God!
Refrain
His Word is a strong eternal rock,
Unshaken it stands thro’ fiercest shock;
Though Satan and all his hosts may mock,
I have faith in the Word of God!
And God will make righteous
And cleanse from all sin
The one who the chiefest
Of sinners has been;
He sanctifies wholly
And justifies him
Who has faith in the Word of God!
Refrain
O soul without God,
Without hope, without peace,
Just now come to Him,
Let your doubtings all cease;
He says He’ll receive you,
Your joys will increase,
O have faith in the Word of God.
Refrain
