He never fails! Tho’mighty host of sin assails; More strong His pow’r than coming foe, Who trusts in Him shall vict’ry know; God never fails! He never fails! Tho’mighty host of sin assails; No one to Him has looked in vain, Press on the vict’ry to attain! 2 God will not fail you, Tho’wrong assail you, From His high throne He watches all; His pow’r defending, His host attending, The mighty foe in fear shall fall.
