Many Trials I've Met

William Stevenson • English

Primary Scripture: 1 Peter 1:7

Verse 1

Many trials I’ve met, Many wait for me yet, And my heart is oft weary and sad; But my Helper is near, And no evil I fear, In His name I rejoice and am glad.

Chorus

The righteous shall be glad in the Lord, And shall trust in him; And all the upright, and all the upright in heart shall glory.

Verse 2

In the furnace to prove, God His face may remove, But in darkness His promise is mine; Soon the clouds will depart, And my purified heart In His own blessed image will shine.

Chorus

The righteous shall be glad in the Lord, And shall trust in him; And all the upright, and all the upright in heart shall glory.

Verse 3

I shall stand in that day ‘Mid the shining array, Where the ransomed His mercy proclaim; There with harp and with voice In the Saviour rejoice, And the glory will give to His name.

Chorus

The righteous shall be glad in the Lord, And shall trust in him; And all the upright, and all the upright in heart shall glory.
