One still loves and cares for you:
But oh, I know my guide.
His stand­ard bear­ers true:
The pow­er of His sal­va­tion
Be Thy glo­ri­ous name ad­ored!
When hu­man strength gives way;
Upon the strong and lov­ing arms of Je­sus
Upon the strong and lov­ing arms of Je­sus
One on whom he may de­pend,
God has told us we shall con­quer,
Always mind­ful of ob­struct­ion,
And shares my hea­vy load.
The night pro­longs its sway;
And teach them that Thy pow­er
Thy Word, O Lord, shall firm­ly stand;
When foes shall as­sault,

Jesus nev­er fails,
His love can nev­er fail,
Whatever may be­tide;
Sometimes the sky is dark­ened,
Hail, ce­les­ti­al good­ness, hail!
When earth­ly loves de­cay.

If we trust His ho­ly name,
We should nev­er be dis­cour­aged
Keep your hand upon the throt­tle,
The while I see afar,
His wis­dom nev­er stray.
We can­not with our loved ones be,
The earth abides at Thy com­mand.
To de­fend it, heart and hand;
