[This is the word in every age]
And, lo, I am with you alway, even unto, &c.
—xxviii. 20.
This is the word in every age
Which doth support and keep
From sin, the world, and Satan's rage,
The shepherds and the sheep:
Thy ministers and people too
On this alone depend,
Thou said'st “I always am with you,
Till time and death shall end.”
Which doth support and keep
From sin, the world, and Satan's rage,

On this alone depend,
Thou said'st “I always am with you,
Till time and death shall end.”
Jesus I faithfully receive
The promise made to me,
And happy in Thy service live,
To gather souls for Thee:
I trust Thy truth and love and power,
Thy messenger to bless,
Till brought through every fiery hour
Thou bidd'st me die in peace.
