Sacred Songs and Solos Lyrics
Hymn No.310
First Line: Faith is a living power from heaven ,
Faith is a living power from heaven
Which grasps the promise God has given ;
Securely fixed on Christ alone,
A trust that cannot be o'erthrown.
2 Faith finds in Christ whate'er we need
To save and strengthen, guide and feed;
Strong in His grace, it joys to share
His cross, in hope His crown to wear.
3 Faith to the conscience whispers peace,
And bids the mourner's sighing cease ;
By faith the children's right we claim,
And call upon our Father's name.
4 Such faith in us, O God, implant,
And to our prayers Thy favour grant,
In Jesus Christ, Thy saving Son,
Who is our fount of health alone.
