The God of my salvation lives

Anne Steele • English

Primary Scripture: Habakkuk 2:17-18

Verse 1

The God of my salvation lives; My nobler life he will sustain; His word immortal vigor gives, Nor shall my glorious hope be vain.

Verse 2

Thy presence, Lord, can cheer my heart, Though every earthly comfort die; Thy smile can bid my pains depart, And raise my sacred pleasures high.

Verse 3

Oh, let me hear thy blissful voice, Inspiring life and joy divine! The barren desert shall rejoice; 'Tis paradise, if thou art mine.
