The Music of God’s Word

In the deep

deep waves of sor­row

’Mid the strong

swift tides of grief;

Hark

a sound of heav’n­ly mu­sic

Bringing sweet and sure re­lief!

Precious mu­sic of the Bi­ble!

Music saints and pro­phets heard!

Bringing hope in times of ang­uish;

Wondrous mu­sic of God’s Word!

Hear it sing­ing

I am with thee!

Hear again! Be not afraid.

Canst thou fear

when He is near thee

He

on whom thy trust is stayed?

Doth thy way seem hedged ab­out thee?

I will guide thee with Mine eye.

Do the cares of life per­plex thee?

I will an­swer ere they cry.

Art thou wea­ry? Hark

the ec­ho!

Come

thou wea­ry one

to Me;

Art thou trou­bled for the fu­ture?

As thy days

thy strength shall be.
