Scripture: Matthew 7:25 - 26

1. 1. 
      1. My hope is built on nothing less
         Than Jesus’ blood and righteousness;
         I dare not trust the sweetest frame,
         But wholly lean on Jesus’ name.
         • Refrain:
           On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand;
           All other ground is sinking sand,
           All other ground is sinking sand.
      2. When darkness veils His lovely face,
         I rest on His unchanging grace;
         In every high and stormy gale,
         My anchor holds within the veil.
      3. His oath, His covenant, His blood
         Support me in the whelming flood;
         When all around my soul gives way,
         He then is all my hope and stay.
      4. When He shall come with trumpet sound,
         Oh, may I then in Him be found;
         Dressed in His righteousness alone,
         Faultless to stand before the throne.

1. 1. 1. 
         
      2. 1. 
            1. Be not dismayed whate’er betide,
               God will take care of you;
               Beneath His wings of love abide,
               God will take care of you.
               • Refrain:
                 God will take care of you,
                 Through every day, o’er all the way;
                 He will take care of you,
                 God will take care of you.
            2. Through days of toil when heart doth fail,
               God will take care of you;
               When dangers fierce your path assail,
               God will take care of you.
            3. All you may need He will provide,
               God will take care of you;
               Nothing you ask will be denied,
               God will take care of you.
            4. No matter what may be the test,
               God will take care of you;
               Lean, weary one, upon His breast,
               God will take care of you.

Scripture: Hebrews 10:22

1. 
   
   
   
   1. Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine!
      Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine!
      Heir of salvation, purchase of God,
      Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood.
      
      
      
      • Refrain:
        This is my story, this is my song,
        Praising my Savior all the day long;
        This is my story, this is my song,
        Praising my Savior all the day long.
   2. Perfect submission, perfect delight,
      Visions of rapture now burst on my sight;
      Angels, descending, bring from above
      Echoes of mercy, whispers of love.
   3. Perfect submission, all is at rest,
      I in my Savior am happy and blest,
      Watching and waiting, looking above,
      Filled with His goodness, lost in His love.

I Know Whom I Have Believed

Scripture: 2 Timothy 1:12

1. I know not why God’s wondrous grace
   To me He hath made known,
   Nor why, unworthy, Christ in love
   Redeemed me for His own.
   
   • Refrain:
     But “I know Whom I have believed,
     And am persuaded that He is able
     To keep that which I’ve committed
     Unto Him against that day.”
2. I know not how this saving faith
   To me He did impart,
   Nor how believing in His Word
   Wrought peace within my heart.
3. I know not how the Spirit moves,
   Convincing men of sin,
   Revealing Jesus through the Word,
   Creating faith in Him.
4. I know not what of good or ill
   May be reserved for me,
   Of weary ways or golden days,
   Before His face I see.
5. I know not when my Lord may come,
   At night or noonday fair,
   Nor if I walk the vale with Him,
   Or meet Him in the air.
