Just the Same

Frances R. Havergal • English

Primary Scripture: 1 Samuel 7:12

Verse 1

Through the yesterday of ages, Jesus, thou hast been the same; Through our own life's checkered pages, Still the one dear changeless name; Well may we in thee confide, Faithful Saviour, proved and tried.

Verse 2

Joyfully we stand and witness Thou art still to-day the same; In thy perfect, glorious fitness, Meeting every need and claim; Chiefest of ten thousand thou! Saviour, O most precious, now!

Verse 3

Gazing down the far forever, Brighter glows the one sweet name, Steadfast radiance paling never, Jesus, Jesus! still the same; Evermore thou shalt endure, Our own Saviour, strong and pure.
