All fulness resides
in Jesus our Head,
And ever abides
to answer all need:
The Father's good pleasure
has laid up a store,
A plentiful treasure,
to give to the poor.
Whatever distress
awaits us below,
Such plentiful grace
the Lord will bestow
As still shall support us
and silence our fear,
And nothing can hurt us
while Jesus is near.
When sorrows assail us,
or terrors draw nigh,
His love will not fail us,
He'll guide with His eye;
And when we are fainting,
and ready to fail,
He'll give what is wanting,
and make us prevail.
We trust His protection;
we'll lean on His might;
We're sure His direction
will guide us aright;
We know who surrounds us,
almighty to save,
And no one confounds us
the Saviour who have.
