How Strong Thine Arm Is, Mighty God

Verse 1

How strong thine arm is, mighty God,
Who would not fear thy Name!
Jesus, how sweet thy graces are!
Who would not love the Lamb!

Verse 2

He has done more than Moses did,
Our Prophet and our King;
From bonds of hell he freed our souls,
And taught our lips to sing.

Verse 3

In the Red-sea by Moses’ hand
Th’ Egyptian host was drown’d;
But his own blood hides all our sins,
And guilt no more is found.

Verse 4

When thro’ the desert Israel went,
With manna they were fed;
Our Lord invites us to his flesh,
And calls it living bread.

Verse 5

Moses beheld the promis’d land,
Yet never reach’d the place;
But Christ shall bring his followers home
To see his Father’s face.

Verse 6

Then shall our love and joy be full,
And feel a warmer flame;
And sweeter voices tune the song
Of Moses and the Lamb.
