Mark 2:61: In vain the storms of trouble rise

by Charles Wesley 1707–1788

From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 11 (1871)

Religion

In vain the storms of trouble rise,
Come to his city in the skies
He sits secure above,

Tumults and wars serene he sees,
They cannot interrupt his peace,
Which Christ's approach portend.
Which hasten the long wished for day,
When heaven and earth shall flee away
And grace in glory end.
