Can build an ark, or smooth the wave,
For such as love His name.
4 Yea, should it even to man appear,
At times, as though the Lord
Forsook His chosen servants here,
We yet will trust His word.
5 Lord! if Thine arm support us still
With its eternal strength,
We shall o’ercome the mightiest ill,
And conquerors prove, at length.
