-Who shall the Lord's elect condemn?
-'Tis God that justifies their souls;
-And mercy, like a mighty stream,
-O'er all their sins divinely rolls.
-Who shall adjudge the saints to hell?
-'Tis Christ that suffered in their stead;
-And, the salvation to fulfill,
-Behold him rising from the dead!
-He lives! he lives and sits above,
-For ever interceding there:
-Who shall divide us from his love?
-Or what should tempt us to despair?
-Shall persecution, or distress,
-Famine, or sword, or nakedness?
-He that hath loved us bears us through,
-And makes us more than conquerors too.
-Faith hath an overcoming power;
-It triumphs in the dying hour:
-Christ is our life, our joy, our hope,
-Nor can we sink with such a prop.
-Not all that men on earth can do,
-Nor powers on high, nor powers below,
-Shall cause his mercy to remove,
-Or wean our hearts from Christ our love.}}
