"Confidence in the Divine Word"

A hymn written by Joseph Irons in Zion's Hymns. (in common meter)

"Confidence in the Divine Word"

1. All glory to the sacred name
Of Israel's God and King;
Let us His faithfulness proclaim,
His truth and mercy sing.

2. He spoke in love, ere time began,
The purposes of grace,
Which form'd the glorious gospel plan,
To save His chosen race.

3. He spoke the promises, which shine,
Upon th' inspir'd page;
Each promise rests on power divine,
Secure from age to age.

4. On this grand truth my soul shall build,
Jehovah cannot lie;
All He has said shall be fulfill'd,
And here I must rely.
