In mounts of danger and of straits,
by J. Franklin·1814·Meter 8.8.8.8 (LM)
Based on Gen 22:14
1
In mounts of danger and of straits,
My soul for his salvation waits;
Jehovah-Jireh will appear,
And save me from my gloomy fear.
2
He, in the most distressing hour,
Displays the greatness of his power;
In darkest nights he makes a way,
And turns the gloomy shade to day.
3
Jehovah-Jireh is his name;
From age to age he proves the same;
He sees when I am sunk in grief,
And quickly flies to my relief.
4
The Lord Jehovah is my guide;
He does and will for me provide;
And in the mount it shall be seen,
How kind and gracious he has been.
