I Will Go in the Strength of the Lord

I will go in the strength of the Lord

In the path He hath marked for my feet:

I will fol­low the light of His Word

Nor shrink from the dan­gers I meet.

His pre­sence my steps shall at­tend:

His full­ness my wants shall sup­ply;

On Him

till my jour­ney shall end

My hope shall se­cure­ly re­ly.

I will go in the strength of the Lord

To the work He ap­points me to do;

In the joy which His smile shall af­ford

My soul shall her vi­gor re­new.

His wis­dom will guard me from harm

His pow­er my suf­fi­cien­cy prove—

I will trust His om­ni­po­tent arm;

I will rest in His co­ve­nant love.

I will go in the strength of the Lord

To each con­flict which faith may re­quire;

His grace

as my shield and re­ward

My cour­age and zeal shall in­spire.

If He is­sue the word of com­mand

To meet and en­count­er the foe

Though with sling and with stone in my hand

In the strength of the Lord I will go.
