Evangelical Lutheran Hymnal. 9th ed. ‎#a176

a176. Our God is true!--Them He will ne'er forsake

1 Our god is true!-- Them He will ne'er forsake
For whom His love He shows;
Our God is true!--We shall His care partake
In all our joys and woes;
His wings will spread their shelter o'er us:
Though mountains quake, earth yawn before us,
Our God is true!

2 Our God is true!-- He is a faithful Friend,
We from experience know;
And, rest assured, He will our souls defend
From ev'ry watchful foe.
His cov'nant love gives no denial
To humble faith, in hours of trial,--
Our God is true!

3 Our God is true!--Never forget, my soul,
How kind and true He is!
Be true to God!--Let this thy life control
And be devoutly His!
From loving Him let nothing drive thee!
And of this stay let none deprive thee,--
Our God is true!
