Fifth Sunday after Easter

Life nor Death shall us dissever
From His love who reigns for ever:
Will He fail us? Never! never!
When to Him we cry.

Sin may seek to snare us,
Fury Passion tear us;
Doubt and Fear, and grim Despair,
Their fangs against us try;

But His might shall still defend us,
And His blessed Son befriend us,
And His Holy Spirit send us
Comfort ere we die.
