980 Anne Steele
When sins and fears prevailing rise
And fainting hope almost expires
Jesus, to thee I lift my eyes
To thee I breathe my soul's desires
To thee I breathe my soul's desires
Art thou not mine, my living Lord?
And can my hope, my comfort die
Fixed on thy everlasting word
That word which built the earth and sky?
That word which built the earth and sky?
If my immortal Savior lives
Then my immortal life is sure
His word a firm foundation gives
Here, let me build, and rest secure
Here, let my faith unshaken dwell
Unmovable, the promise stands
Not all the powers of Earth and Hell
Can e'er dissolve the sacred bands
Can e'er dissolve the sacred bands
If my immortal Savior lives
Then my immortal life is sure
His word a firm foundation gives
Here, let me build, and rest secure
Here, oh my soul, thy trust repose
If Jesus is forever mine
Not death itself, that last of foes
Shall break a union so divine
Shall break a union so divine
Shall break a union so divine
And fainting hope almost expires
Jesus, to thee I lift my eyes
To thee I breathe my soul's desires
To thee I breathe my soul's desires
Art thou not mine, my living Lord?
And can my hope, my comfort die
Fixed on thy everlasting word
That word which built the earth and sky?
That word which built the earth and sky?
If my immortal Savior lives
Then my immortal life is sure
His word a firm foundation gives
Here, let me build, and rest secure
Here, let my faith unshaken dwell
Unmovable, the promise stands
Not all the powers of Earth and Hell
Can e'er dissolve the sacred bands
Can e'er dissolve the sacred bands
If my immortal Savior lives
Then my immortal life is sure
His word a firm foundation gives
Here, let me build, and rest secure
Here, oh my soul, thy trust repose
If Jesus is forever mine
Not death itself, that last of foes
Shall break a union so divine
Shall break a union so divine
Shall break a union so divine
