138. Now We Have Heard the Savior

1. Now we have heard the Savior
Reveal His Word and will;
He came to us with favor,
And He abideth still.

2. He never will forsake us,
He tenderly is nigh,
And to Himself would take us,
Our Savior from on high.

3. And He would gladly guide us
Into the home above,
With all we need provide us,
And help us in His love.

4. Receive the Word sincerely,
Live true to it each day;
Show that you love Christ dearly
And follow in His way.

5. Let each take His position
At heart serene and still,
And bring complete submission
Unto the Father’s will.

6. Then bravely on proceeding,
Our Shepherd at our side, -
He, faithful in His leading,
Will step by step abide.

7. We shall not rue it ever,
The narrow way to go;
He faithful is forever
Who calls us, - Him we know.

8. Let us for all be striving
That giveth us true peace,
Forsake, in all our living,
The things that God displease.

9. Thy people keep, O Savior,
In all adversity,
Till we at last forever
United are with Thee.

10. Where we Thy praise and glory
Will never tire to sing,
And with new songs before Thee
Our endless worship bring!
