Martyn Lloyd-Jones singing with his congregation
Congregational singing
Westminster Chapel, London
Text: John Newton | Tune: HANOVER

Begone, unbelief
My Saviour is near
And for my relief
Will surely appear
By prayer let me wrestle
And He will perform
With Christ in the vessel
I smile at the storm

Though dark be my way
Since He is my Guide
’Tis mine to obey
’Tis His to provide
Though cisterns be broken
And creatures all fail
The Word He has spoken
Shall surely prevail

His love in time past
Forbids me to think
He’ll leave me at last
In trouble to sink
Each sweet Ebenezer
I have in review
Confirms His good pleasure
To help me quite through

Why should I complain
Of want or distress
Temptation or pain?
He told me no less
The heirs of salvation
I know from His Word
Through much tribulation
Must follow their Lord

Since all that I meet
Shall work for my good
The bitter is sweet
The med’cine is food
Though painful at present
They cease before long
And then, O how pleasant
The conqueror’s song!
