"If thou but suffer God to guide thee
And hope in Him through all thy ways,
He’ll give thee strength, whate’er betide thee,
And bear thee through the evil days.
Who trusts in God’s unchanging love
Builds on the Rock that naught can move."
~ Georg Neumark, translation by Catherine Winkworth
This is verse one of a seven-verse hymn John Piper describes in his discussion of his favorite hymn.
