Kept by His Power

Author: Charlotte Murray Hymnal: Northfield Hymnal #44 (1904) First Line: Kept by his power, no human arm upholding Refrain First Line: Kept by the power of God unto salvation Lyrics: 1 “Kept by His pow’r”—no human arm upholding, No human hand outstretch’d to point the way; But God’s great love, His feeble child enfolding, Is all-sufficient for thy need each day. Refrain: Kept by the pow’r of God unto salvation, Ready to be revealed, revealed in the latter day, Kept by the pow’r of God unto salvation, Ready to be revealed in the latter day. 2 “Kept by His pow’r”—when sun is brightly shining And glory crowns thy pathway with its light; “Kept by His pow’r”—when daylight is declining, And length’ning shadows tell of coming night. [Refrain] 3 “Kept” when the world for Thee its smile is wreathing, When skies are fair, and life with roses spread; “Kept” when its frown to Thee it is bequeathing And clouds are massing darkly over head. [Refrain] 4 His pow’r to keep is strong and true as ever, No length of years can e’er its force abate; His will to keep can never fail—no, never; While Mercy stands at heav’n’s wide-open gate. [Refrain] Topics: Salvation Tune Title: [Kept by his power, no human arm upholding]
