86. THE LORD WILL PROVIDE

Previous
Next

​Author:  John Newton (1725-1807)
​Composer:  Hans Georg Nägeli (1773-1836)​

​1. Though troubles assail
    And dangers affright,
    Though friends should all fail
    And foes all unite,
    Yet one thing secures us
    Whatever betide,
    This promise assures us:
     “The Lord will provide!”
 
2. Though often the heart
    With storms be oppressed,
    Afflictions do smart,
    By Satan distressed,
     “O what shall befall us?”
    We wearily sighed;
    Still He who protects us,
     “The Lord will provide!”
 
3. His call we obey
    As Abram of old,
    Not knowing our way,
    But faith makes us bold;
    Where’er He shall lead us,
    The way He doth guide;
    He knows best who rules us;
     “The Lord will provide!”
 
4. When Satan appears,
    Obstructing our path
    And fills us with fears,
    We conquer by faith;
    He cannot take from us,
    Though oft he has tried,
    The heart-cheering promise:
     “The Lord will provide!”
 
5. He tells us we’re weak,
    Our hope is in vain;
    The good that we seek
    We shall not obtain;
    Yet when such temptations
    Our patience have tried,
    In this we find solace:
     “The Lord will provide!”
 
6. Though merit and strength
    We do not possess,
    And honor and wealth
    Our souls would distress;
    In Thy name, Lord Jesus,
    We’ll ever abide,
    And thus we say: “Amen,
    The Lord will provide!”

Special thanks to the Apostolic Christians who diligently labored to keep their rich musical heritage alive when most other denominations forsook it in the challenging battle of changing cultures.
​
Thanks be to those souls who labored to write and compose this treasure of praise, many now only known to GOD!

Above all, thanks, praise, and glory be to GOD!
