The Lord is My Help

Original tune: Whiter than Snow (fischer); William G. Fischer, 1835-1912.
Hebrews 13:5-6

The Lord is my help, I will not be afraid.
When tempted to fear, I will call on his name.
What comfort in knowing His word is for sure.
He said, "I will never leave nor forsake you."

Chorus:
Never to fear; my Lord, He is near.
He said, "I will never leave nor forsake you."

I boldly believe his assurance to me.
No matter the trial, Holy Spirit in me.
What blessed Trinity has regarded my need.
He said, "I will never leave nor forsake you."

Chorus:

When death draws me home, I will be face to face.
For certain I rise, ever boast of his grace.
By faith all who enter find rest for the soul.
He said, "I will never leave nor forsake you."

Chorus:
