While foes are strong and danger near,
A voice falls gently on my ear:
My Saviour speaks, He says to me,
That “as my days my strength shall be.”
With such a promise need I fear
For all that now I hold most dear?
No, I will never anxious be,
For as my days my strength shall be.”
When storms of trouble on me fall,
And when my cup is mixed with gall,
This promise will be sweet to me,
That as my days my strength shall be.
And when at last I’m called to die,
Still on Thy promise I’ll rely;
Yes, Lord, I then will trust in Thee,
That “as my days my strength shall be.”
