Is He with­in thy heart;
My keep­er is Om­ni­po­tence;

We are in port if we have Thee.
And death’s black shade no more.
The king­dom of His Son.

Rul­er

Their judge let judg­es fear.
Against the Lord of earth and Heav’n
Decks the spring with flow­ers the field?
From Zi­on shall Je­ho­vah send
Shout His praise, for us He came to die.
In which thou hast no part?
The pow­ers be­low and pow­ers ab­ove
Spirit of life, which moved ere form was made;
’Twixt Thee and us or­dained to stand,
Who hold­est in Thine arm
Our hearts shall be His throne;
We own Thy pow­er di­vine:
Whom the an­gels crowned their king.
Rule my heart to­day.
The God of Heav’n, as Judge, sur­veys,
And grant our Church Thy grace to stand
Ever gra­cious, ev­er wise!
Who giv­eth to men of His boun­ty
Reveal to ev­ery hu­man heart
Homeless on His mo­ther’s breast,
