When God Is On My Side
When God, my God is on my side,
who can prevail against me?
E’ven stress and tears I take in stride,
and they will serve to bless me.
The angels then with me abide,
at night the stars will be my guide,
at day the flowers greet me.
The darkest clouds, whate’er betide,
my Shepherd stilll is near me.
When by life’s storms severely tried,
His staff will surely guide me.
Rivers of water, deep and wide,
near pastures green I will reside,
my Saviour always near me.
I have my Lord, that will suffice,
who would I need beside Him?
It was His loving sacrifice,
that filled my cup up to the brim.
My greatest treasure, help in need,
He is my truest Friend indeed
and I may always praise Him.
