Rejoice, believer, in the Lord

1

Rejoice, believer, in the Lord,Who makes your cause his own;The hope that 's built upon his wordShall ne'er be overthrown.

2

Though many foes beset your road,And feeble is your arm,Your life is hid with Christ in God,Beyond the reach of harm.

3

Weak as you are, you shall not faint,Or, fainting, shall not die;Jesus, the strength of every saint,Will aid you from on high.

4

Though now unseen by outward sense,Faith sees him always near,A guide, a glory, a defense;What, then, have we to fear?

5

As surely as he overcame,And triumphed once for you,So surely you that love his nameShall triumph in him too.
