First Line: Rejoice in the Lord ! Oh, let His mercy cheer,

Rejoice in the Lord ! Oh, let His mercy cheer ;
He sunders the bands that enthrall ;
Redeemed by His blood, why should
we ever fear-----
Since Jesus is our all in all ?

If God be for us, if God be for us, if God
Who can be against us ?
Who ? . . . who ? . . . who ? . . . be for us,
Who can be against us, against us ?

2 Be strong in the Lord ! rejoicing in His might,
Be loyal and true day by day ;
When evils assail, be valiant for the right,
And He will be our strength and stay.

3 Confide in His Word----His promises so sure ;
In Christ they are yea and amen ;
Though earth pass away, they ever shall endure,
'Tis written o'er and 'oer again.

4 Abide in the Lord : secure in His con-
'Tis life everlasting begun ; [trol,
To pluck from His hand the weakest
trembling soul----
It never, never can be done !
