Johnson Road 109

Lyrics: Old Baptist Hymnal, #1340
Tune: Neely Bruce
Meter: L.M. (8,8,8,8)

Jehovah is a god of might,
He framed the earth, he built the sky;
And what he speaks is surely right;
"The strength of Israel will not lie."

Ye weary souls, with sin oppressed,
To him in ev'ry trouble fly;
His promise is, I'll give you rest;
"The strength of Israel will not lie."

Then why sink down beneath despair?
To Jesus throne of grace apply;
His promise plead, he'll hear your prayer;
"The strength of Israel will not lie."
