The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book ‎#479

479. We all are yet alive

1 We all are yet alive,
And see each other's face:
Glory and praise to Jesus give
For his redeeming grace.

2 What troubles have we seen,
What conflicts have we passed,
Fightings without, and fears within,
Since we assembled last!

3 But out of all, the Lord
Hath brought us by his love;
And still his help he doth afford,
And hides our life above.

4 Let us take up the cross
Till we the crown obtain;
And gladly reckon all things loss,
So we may Jesus gain.
