In Him Who’s Able

lyricist: P. L.
Composer: P. L.

In Him who’s able

Full rest and perfect peace;

In Him who’s faithful

Supply can never cease.

I need not strive now

Self-effort

strength deplete.

But to Him I bow

In the “I Am” believe.

By faith I now see Him

Jehovah

Elohim;

Fulfilling One He is

In all His promises.

In all His promises.

Those on my heart

I give

To Him who will perfect

Ground

and establish

For these are His elect.

Faithful is He who calls

Who also will complete

The good work in them all

Nothing unfinished leave.

By faith I look away

From change that seems halfway

But on faith’s Author gaze

Perfecter

all the way.

Perfecter

all the way.

I simply give my strength

To Him

cooperate

Dropping my wings at length

To let Him operate.

’Tis He who causes growth

Not toil

struggle

strain

Nor strategies and goals

But letting His light reign.

No darkness—all is light;

’Tis He who gives the sight

To see a vision bright

Of only Jesus Christ.

Of only Jesus Christ.

I cannot help but praise

What wisdom manifest!

The rightness of His ways

I worship and attest.

I can no more hold in

My sacrifice of praise

For He has faithful been

And will remain always.

Fruit of my lips to Him

Now overflows the brim;

His throne on praise is raised.

Out of my mouth

I praise

Yes

He’s perfected praise!
