Jesus I know hath died for me;
This is my hope, my joy, my rest!
Hither, when hell assails, I flee,
And look into my Saviour's breast;
Away, sad doubts, and anxious fear—
Mercy is all that's written there.
Though waves and storms go o'er my head,
Though strength apd health, and friends be gone,
Though joys be withered all, and dead,
And ev'ry comfort be withdrawn;
Steadfast on this my soul relies,
Father, thy mercy never dies.
Fixed on this ground will I remain,
When heart shall fail, and flesh decay
This anchor shall my soul sustain,
When earth's foundations melt away:
Mercy's full power I then shall prove,
Loved with an everlasting love!
