The soul enjoys a sacred peace:
Thy presence calms our every fear,
And gives from every doubt release.
2 Be with us now, in truth and love,
In strength that conquers every sin;
O, cleanse, and bless, and lift above,
And may thy cross our hearts still win.
3 In suffering may we strength receive
From memory of thy victory won;
In doubt our drooping hopes revive;—
