Methodist-Hymns-502
1: OMNIPOTENT Lord, my Saviour and King,
Thy succour afford, Thy righteousness bring;
Thy promises bind thee Compassion to have;
Now, now let me find Thee Almighty to save.
2: Rejoicing, in hope, and patient in grief,
To Thee I look up For certain relief;
I fear no denial, no danger I fear,
Nor start from the trial, While Jesus is near.
3: I every hour In jeopardy stand;
But Thou art my power, and holdest my hand;
While yet I am calling, Thy succour I feel;
It saves me from falling, Or plucks me from hell.
4: O who can explain this struggle for life
This travail and pain, this trembling and strife:
Plague, earthquake, and famine,
and tumult, and war,
The wonderful coming Of Jesus declare.
5: Yet God is above Men, devils, and sin,
My Jesus’s love The battle shall win;
So terribly glorious His coming shall be,
His love all-victorious Shall conquer for me.
6: He all shall break through;
His truth and His grace
Shall bring me into The plentiful place,
Through much tribulation, through water and fire,
Through floods of temptation, and flames of desire.
7: On Jesus, my power, till then I rely,
All evil before His presence shall fly;
When I have my Saviour, My sin
shall depart,
And Jesus for ever Shall reign in my heart.
