Our Scripture says it wise’: “If God be for
Us, who can be against?”* A promise strong
From Thee, Thy Self, our Lord, sure n’er be lore.
I ask Thy arms encompass me. (I long!)
I make the words apply just me, and say,
“If Thou be for me, who can be against?”
That be the all I need, e’er need, this day!
The thought, the words, dost show supreme good sense.
When Thou surround with Love, protection be;
No thing can come that harms, for Thou be there.
With gratitude I pray for eyes to see
That gifts of Thine be evidence of care.
Protect me in Thy Love, my Lordship true.
With Thee in charge, I n’er have cause to rue.
