Congregational singing
Metropolitan Tabernacle, London

Keep us, Lord, O keep us ever,
Vain our hope if left by Thee;
We are Thine, O leave us never,
Till Thy face in Heaven we see;
There to praise Thee
Through a vast eternity.

All our strength at once would fail us,
If deserted, Lord, by Thee;
Nothing then could help or save us,
Certain our defeat would be:
Those against us
Then their base desire would see.

But we look to Thee as able,
Grace to give in time of need:
Heaven for us is sure and stable,
Like the promise which we plead:
‘I will keep thee!’
This is all our hope indeed.
