What more can God say than to you has been said, To you who for refuge to Jesus have fled? 2 "Fear not, I am with you, O be not dismayed, For I am your God, and will still give you aid; I'll strengthen you, help you, and cause you to stand, Upheld by my righteous, omnipotent hand. 3 "When through the deep waters I call you to go, The rivers of woe shall not you overflow; For I will be with you, your troubles to bless, And sanctify to you, your deepest distress. 4 "The soul that on Jesus still leans for repose, I will not, I will not desert to its foes; That soul, though all hell should endeavor to shake, I'll never, no never, no never forsake!"

Faith Begins by Letting Go

Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., b. 1944 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 6 hymnals Topics: Ordinary Time, Twenty-Seventh Sunday C Lyrics: 1 Faith begins by letting go, Giving up what had seemed sure, Taking risks and pressing on, Though the way feels less secure: Pilgrimage both right and odd, Trusting all our life to God. 2 Faith endures by holding on, Keeping mem’ry’s roots alive So that hope may bear its fruit; Promise-fed, our souls will thrive, Not through merit we possess But by God’s great faithfulness. 3 Faith matures by reaching out, Stretching minds, enlarging hearts, Sharing struggles, living prayer, Binding up the broken parts: Till we find the commonplace Ripe with witness to God’s grace. Used With Tune: DIX
