HYMN 455

K.117 t.H.C 320 C.M (FE 480) 
"And Abraham called the name of the
place Jehovah Jireh" - Gen.22:14




1.  IT is not meet for Saints to fear

     Nor not for them oh to despair

     For when they least expect His help 

     The Saviour will appear

Chorus:  Proclaim to the world Jesus shall come (3) 

               All ye Holy legion

               Tie on your girdles now.


2.  When Abraham took up his knife 

     God's voice said to him ‘stop’

     The yonder ram caught by the horn 

     Shall substitute thy son.

Chorus:  Proclaim to the world...


3.  When Jonah sank beneath the ways 

     No hope of escape near

     God sent a fish that swallowed him

     And brought him to the shore. 

Chorus:  Proclaim to the world...


4.  With such great might and love as this 

     Abounding in His word

     I pray to bring my anxious cares

     And leave them all to Him.

Chorus:  Proclaim to the world...


5.  Lift up your eyes and wait 

     His help It may be long but wait

     Though the promise may tarry long 

     It soon shall come to pass.

Chorus:  Proclaim to the world Jesus shall come (3) 

               All ye Holy legion

               Tie on your girdles now.  Amen
