15. The Lord's My Redeemer

1 The Lord's my Redeemer, my stronghold is he;
My refuge to which in all trials I flee.
He holds me, he helps me, he comfort bestows;
He calms each rude current which over me flows.

Chorus:
The Lord's my Redeemer, My strong tower is he;
My refuge to which in all trials I flee.

2 He shields me when sounds of the tempest I hear,
He hides me when swift-rolling billows are near.
He cheers me in darkness surrounded by foes,
And comforts my soul with the tho't that "He knows." [Chorus]

3 Oh! Saviour, Redeemer, my Helper and Friend,
On thee in all conflicts my soul doth depend.
Direct me, control me, perfect me, I pray,
Till with thee in glory I'll praise thee for aye. [Chorus]
