When in Je­sus we be­lieve,
And His par­don we re­ceive,
What a com­fort to the soul
The pro­mise brings;
That the wea­ry and op­pressed,
When they come to Him for rest,
He will co­ver with the sha­dow
Of His wings.

Refrain

O sing the great­ness of His mer­cy,
Unto those that seek Him ev­er full and free;
O sing, while an­gels join the cho­rus,
Rolling on­ward like the sea.

When in Je­sus we abide,
And by faith are jus­ti­fied,
We have peace with God the Fa­ther
Through His name;
And the joy that fills the heart,
Though its earth­ly hopes de­part,
Through His all aton­ing mer­it
We may claim.

Refrain

When in Je­sus we are one
We can say, His will be done,
We can trust Him where per­haps
We can­not trace;
For He keeps us by His pow­er,
Every mo­ment, ev­ery hour,
And we feel the sweet re­fresh­ing
Of His grace.

Refrain

Oh, the whis­pers of His love,
How they cheer us from above,
While they tell of yon­der man­sions
Bright and fair;
Where, be­yond the swell­ing tide,
We shall an­chor at His side,
And be ga­thered with the saints
In glo­ry there.

Refrain
