Hymn 293

God is the refuge of His saints

Ọlọrun l’abò ẹni Rè

Meter L.M (8.8.8.8) Oro Olorun
  1. God is the refuge of His saints,
    When storms of sharp distress invade;
    Ere we can offer our complaints,
    Behold Him present with His aid.

  2. Loud may the troubled ocean roar;
    In sacred peace our souls abide;
    While every nation, every shore,
    Trembles, and dreads the swelling tide.

  3. That sacred stream—Thy holy Word—
    That all our raging fear controls;
    Sweet peace Thy promises afford,
    And give new strength to fainting souls. Amin.
