O child of the Kingdom in doubt and distress

O child of the Kingdom in doubt and distress!

Why linger—thy Father is waiting to bless?

Assured of the mercy and love of thy Lord

Claim each precious promise

take God at His Word!

Take God at His Word

Take God at His Word!

Believe every promise

Take God at His Word!

Thy pathway through sorrows and trials may go

Though deep be the waters

they will not o’erflow;

Oh

trust in the Savior

His name be adored!

Confide in His promise

take God at His Word!

He says He will guide thee through sunshine and gloom;

His presence shall brighten thy path to the throne;

And down in death’s valley His voice shall be heard:

Fear not

tempted Christian

take God at His Word!

An heir to a kingdom

and promised a crown;

With God thy protector—oh

why be cast down?

Oh

think of the triumphs of faith thou hast heard;

Be not unbelieving

take God at His Word!
