“Jesus the author and finisher of our faith.” Heb. 12. 2

1 [Jesus the Author is
  Of true and living faith;
  This blessed grace he gives,
  And saves our souls from death;
  By faith in him we live, and view
  The wonders God alone can do.]

2 [The principle of faith
  From Jesus we receive;
  And all the power it hath,
  The Lord the Saviour gave;
  ’Tis Jesus gives us faith to view
  The wonders God alone can do.]

3 ’Tis Jesus gives us faith
  To fight and overcome;
  To vanquish hell and death,
  And trust in him alone;
  With sweet surprise to sit and view
  The wonders God alone can do.

4 Nor death, nor sin, nor hell,
  Against this faith can stand;
  She eyes the Saviour well,
  And Jesus holds her hand;
  He gives her power to live and view
  The wonders God alone can do.

5 Through every trying scene,
  Down to the gates of death,
  Jehovah will maintain
  The life and power of faith;
  For death can never keep from view
  The wonders God alone can do.
