Triumphant in Trouble


"Thy God hath commanded thy strength: strengthen, O God, that which Thou hast wrought for us" (Psalm 68:28).  "O LORD, be gracious unto us... our Salvation also in the time of trouble... the LORD is our King; He will save us" (Isaiah 33:2,22).  "Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ... in every place" (2 Corinthians 2:14).

Our God has commanded our strength
To triumph with heavenly force.
His mercy extends through the length
Of life till we finish our course. 

In trouble He is our Salvation,
Who gives us a new song to sing.
Triumphant in our jubilation,
We worship our Savior and King. 

Now thanks be to Jesus our Savior,
Our Lord, and the Lamb sacrificed!
We triumph alone by the favor
And truth of our Lord Jesus Christ! 

How sweet is the fragrance of grace,
Which manifests Christ in our life. 
We magnify Him in each place
Who makes us triumphant in strife. 

How great was the trouble, O Lord,
In which we had found ourselves in! 
You ran to our rescue and poured
Your soul out to save us from sin!

Lord, thank You for all that You do
To save us from infinite loss! 
We triumph in trouble by You,
With blessings that flow from Your cross!
