Happy they who trust in Jesus,
Sweet their portion is and sure;
When dismay on others seizes,
God will keep his own secure:
Happy people!
To the end their joys endure.
Ye whom God has saved from error,
Wanderers whom his love hath found,
Yield not to distrust or terror,
God has placed his shield around:
Dread no evil,
Mercies ever shall abound.
Sovereign love and mercy found you,
You are precious in his sight;
Ruin seizes those around you
Who their Lord and Saviour slight;
But his kindness
Keeps you safe by day and night.
Your Redeemer never slumbers,
Ever watchful is his care;
Few midst unbelieving numbers,
Through his love secure you are:
Sweet their portion
Who the Saviour’s kindness share.
