Acts 26:17: Where'er our Lord is pleased to send
From Short Hymns on Select Passages of the Holy Scriptures (1762) · Osborn ed., vol. 12 (1872)
Where'er our Lord is pleased to send,
He doth His messengers defend,
The faithful God and true;
He leads us oft into distress,
But present with His witnesses
He always brings us through.
To Jews and Gentiles sent we feel
The fury of self-righteous zeal,
And violent wickedness;
But feeling our Deliverer nigh,
Our souls, till all the storms. pass by,
Are kept in perfect peace.
