God Will Aid

God will aid His chos­en peo­ple;

Trust His grace so full and free;

Know His heart is ev­er beat­ing

Throbbing with true love for thee.

Though you’re wan­der­ing in the de­sert

Pilgrim

through a wea­ry land

Trust His love to aid and help thee—

God will aid His chos­en band.

Love and hope must be thy watch­word

Faith thy burn­ing bea­con be;

Though the light may burn but dim­ly

It will ne’er ex­ting­uished be;

Should’st thou feel thy hope de­sert thee

Grasp His ev­er out­stretched hand;

Trust His love to aid and help thee—

He will save His chos­en band.

Can ye trust? The ten­der ra­di­ance

Of His love shall nev­er dim;

Though through night and dark­ness lead­ing

Let thy foot­steps fol­low Him;

Thou art safe

though clouds and tem­pests

Threaten thee on ev­ery hand;

Trust His grace to aid and help thee—

He will aid His chos­en band.
