His Words Are True

What won­der­ful words in the Gos­pel of grace

Our lov­ing Re­deem­er has giv’n!

How hap­py are they who in spir­it are pure

For theirs is the king­dom of Heav’n!

Tho’ all that is earth­ly will fade

And van­ish away from our view

We know that as sure as the Sav­ior lives

The words He has spok­en are true.

He mak­eth the lil­ies to bloom in the field

And shel­ters the bird in its nest;

He call­eth the wea­ry to come un­to Him

And find the sweet bless­ing of rest.

To those that are thirst­ing and long­ing for Him

The wa­ter of life He will give;

And they that with pa­tience en­dure to the end

Forever in glo­ry shall live.

Then why are we fear­ful

and where is our faith?

His own He will nev­er for­sake;

And tho’ He may lead them where wa­ters are deep

His pro­mise He nev­er will break.
