Jehovah-Jireh

When earthly joys glide swift away,
When hopes and comforts flee,

When earthly joys glide swift away,
When hopes and comforts flee,
When foes beset, and friends betray,
I turn, my God, to Thee!

Thy nature, Lord, no change can know;
Thy promise still is sure;
And ills can ne’er so hopeless grow
But Thou canst find a cure.

Deliverance comes most bright and best
At danger’s darkest hour;
And man’s extremity is best
To prove Almighty power.

High as Thou art, Thou still art near
When suppliants succour crave;
And as Thine ear is swift to hear,
Thy arm is strong to save.

Henry Francis Lyte
