I care not what oth­ers may do,
He sure­ly will save me from dan­ger,
Trusting in His pow’r to make you whole;
If He is mine, then, though He frown,
His lit­tle praise de­ny?
Millions of birds and worlds will God
The Bride­groom comes! Bride of the Lamb, awake!
That’s why I love Him so,
That’s why I love Him so,
From my heart and now He keeps me by His pow­er.
In Thy truth.
And do His will,
start
Open thy heart to the Sav­ior’s love.

By mak­ing wick­ed men His rod,
The bless­ings of the fount above;
My keep­er is the Lord;

for­sake

Thy gra­cious pre­sence lend me;
Jesus is mine, no ev­il can o’er­take me;
The world for my soul lays its snares,
To whom can I go but to Je­sus?
Who trust His sac­red pro­mis­es;
His chas­tise­ments all work for good,
The sea­sons cease to be,
end
The mar­riage day has come; lift up thy head!
That’s why I love Him so.
That’s why I love Him so.
And Sa­tan tempt me sore,
Ever be my friend;
And trust Him still:
And greet the morn­ing light!
Jesus is wait­ing to hear your call;
For the world is ev­er vain;
It shall not as their lot still be.
The crys­tal stream of bound­less love.
I trust me to His Word.
