LyicsLet not your hearts with anxious thoughts,
Be troubled or dismay'd:
Buy trust in God your Father's care
And trust my gracious aid.
I to my Father's house return;
There num'rous mansions stand,
And glory manifold abounds
Through all the happy land.
I go your entrance to secure,
And your abode prepare;
Regions unknown are safe to you,
When I, your Friend, am there.
Thence shall I come when ages close,
To take you home with me;
There shall we meet to part no more,
When sorrows ne'er shall be.
I am the Way, the Truth, the Life;
No son of human race,
But such as I conduct and guide,
Shall see my Father's face.
