 |  |  |  | 1. | Begone, unbelief, |  |  |  | My Savior 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. |  |  | 2. | 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 hath spoken |  |  |  | Shall surely prevail. |  |  | 3. | His love, in time past, |  |  |  | Forbids me to think |  |  |  | He'll leave me at last |  |  |  | In trouble to sink: |  |  |  | Each sweet Ebenzer |  |  |  | I have in review |  |  |  | Confirms His good pleasure |  |  |  | To help me quite through. |  |  | 4. | 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. |  |  | 5. | How bitter that cup |  |  |  | No heart can conceive, |  |  |  | Which He drank quite up, |  |  |  | That sinners might live! |  |  |  | His way was much rougher |  |  |  | And darker than mine; |  |  |  | Did Christ, my Lord, suffer, |  |  |  | And shall I repine? |  |  | 6. | Since all that I meet |  |  |  | Shall work for my good, |  |  |  | The bitter is sweet, |  |  |  | The medicine, food; |  |  |  | Though painful at present, |  |  |  | 'Twill cease before long, |  |  |  | And then, oh, how pleasant |  |  |  | The conqueror's song! |
