Lord Jesus, Thou Dost Keep

Jean Sophia Pigott • English

Primary Scripture: Job 13:15

Verse 1

LORD Jesus, thou dost keep thy child Through sunshine or through tempest wild; Jesus, I trust in thee. Thine is such wondrous power to save; Thine is the mighty love that gave Its all on Calvary.

Verse 2

O glorious Saviour, thee I praise! To thee my new glad song I raise, And tell of what thou art. Thy grace is boundless in its store; Thy face of love shines evermore; Thou givest me thy heart.

Verse 3

Upon thy promises I stand, Trusting in thee; thine own right hand Doth keep and comfort me. My soul doth triumph in thy word; Thine, thine be all the praise, dear Lord, As thine the victory.

Verse 4

Love perfecteth what it begins; Thy power doth save me from my sins; Thy grace upholdeth me. This life of trust, how glad, how sweet; My need and thy great fulness meet, And I have all in thee.
