Mighty to Save.

O, CHRISTIAN! doth life seem a wearisome way, At the thought of its toils, art thou filled with dismay; Dost thou fear in thine own strength its dangers to brave? Trust thou in Jesus; He's mighty to save.
Doth it grieve thee to find that thine own wayward heart Is constantly prone from thy God to depart, Fear'st thou it must ever be thus, to thy grave? No! Christ's thy Redeemer; He's mighty to save.
Do thorns strew thy pathway, where once bloomed the flowers, And darkness its shadow cast o'er thy bright hours? Forget not thy home is beyond the dark grave, Trust all in His hands who is mighty to save.
Have joys that once bloomed, now faded and fled? Have loved ones departed to dwell with the dead, And left thee all lonely, this side the dark wave? Cling close to the Living One, mighty to save.
For soon will thy conflicts on earth be all past, And thou with the ransomed be numbered at last,— With them sing of victory o'er death and the grave, Through Christ thy Redeemer, the mighty to save. [American Wesleyan.
