When earthly comforts die,
And thorns o’erspread the road,
Whither, oh wither shall I fly,
But unto thee, my God!
When anxious thoughts arise,
And sorrows compass round,
Amidst ten thousand enemies,
In thee my help is found.
Then at thy feet I’ll bow,
And in thy mercy trust!
If I am saved, how good art thou,
And if I perish, just!
Perish!—it cannot be,
Since Jesus shed his blood;
The promise is both rich and free,
And he will make it good.
