Christ the Keeper of his Saints. Ps. 121. 5; John 6. 39
1
Christ is the Keeper of his saints,
 
He guards them by his power;
 
Subdues their numerous complaints,
 
In every gloomy hour.
2
What though they fear each dread alarm,
 
Tried, and severely tossed;
 
Held by the Saviour’s mighty arm,
 
None, none can e’er be lost.
3
He’ll lead them on fair Zion’s road,
 
Though weary, weak, and faint;
 
For O! they ne’er shall lose their God,
 
Or God e’er lose a saint.
4
How sure his great salvation shines;
 
How full the vast reward;
 
How firm the promise e’er remains:
 
How faithful is the Lord!
