Rejoice in the Lord, O let His mer­cy cheer,
He sun­ders the bands that en­thrall;
Redeemed by His blood,
Why should we ev­er fear,
Since Je­sus is our all in all?

Refrain

If God be for us, if God be for us,
If God be for us, who can be against us,
Who, who, who,
Who can be against us, against us?

Be strong in the Lord, re­joic­ing in His might,
Be loy­al and true, day by day;
When ev­ils as­sail,
Be val­iant for the right,
And He will be our strength, our stay.

Refrain

Confide in His Word, His pro­mis­es so sure,
In Christ, they are yea, and amen;
Tho’ earth pass away,
They ev­er shall en­dure,
’Tis writ­ten o’er and o’er again.

Refrain

Abide in the Lord, se­cure in His con­trol,
’Tis life ev­er­last­ing be­gun;
To pluck from His hand
The weak­est, trem­bling soul,
It ne­ver, ne­ver can be done.

Refrain
