Carols of Hope ‎#196

196. Every Blessing That You Need

1. Tho' the path grow rough and steep,
Still your faith in Jesus keep,
Closely follow him wherever he may lead,
For on him you can depend,
Day and night, until the end;
He will give you ev'ry blessing that you need.

Chorus:
He will give you ev'ry blessing that you need,
And your faintest call he'll answer when you plead;
Therefore bravely go along,
Keeping faith and courage strong:
God will give you ev'ry blessing that you need.

2. Tho' the world upon you frown
And your trials weigh you down,
To the whispers of the tempter give no heed;
Keep your eyes upon the Lord
And be guided by his word;
He will give you ev'ry blessing that you need. [Chorus]

3. Often foes will strive to harm,
Tempests fill you with alarm,
Often rocks and briars will your path impede,
But along the rugged way,
Christ will help you ev'ry day;
He will give you ev'ry blessing that you need. [Chorus]
