Kept, safely kept;
My fears away are swept;
In weakness to my God I cling,
Though foes be strong I calmly sing,
Kept, safely kept.
My fears away are swept;
In weakness to my God I cling,
Though foes be strong I calmly sing,
Kept, safely kept.
Kept by His power,
Whatever dangers lower
The strength of God’s almighty arm
Doth shield my soul from every harm,
Kept by His power.
Through simple faith,
Believing what He saith,
Unshaken on my God I lean,
And realise His power unseen,
But known to faith.
Kept all the way,
E’en to salvation’s day,
His mighty love ne’er cold shall wax,
Nor shall His pow’rful grasp relax,
Through all the way.
