The Old Story in Song Number Two ‎#11

11. Jesus Is Strong to Deliver

1 When in my sorrow, he found me—
Found me and bade me be whole;
Turned all my night into heavenly light,
And from me my burden did roll.

Refrain:
Jesus is strong to deliver:
Mighty to save, mighty to save!
Jesus is strong to deliver:
Jesus is mighty to save!

2 When in the tempest, he’ll hide us;
When in the storm, he’ll be near;
All the way long he will carry us on—
So now we have nothing to fear. [Refrain]

3 Why are you doubting and fearing?
Why are you still under sin?
Have you not found that his grace doth abound:
He’s mighty to save, let him in! [Refrain]
