HYMN 102. Faith more precious than Gold.
1 Pet. 1.7 That the trial of your Faith, which is much more precious than Gold, &c.
1 Pet. 1.7 That the tryal of your Faith, which is much more precious than Gold, &c.
1 BY Faith we do on Christ depend For all that he hath done; By Faith we do to God ascend With many a bitter groan:
2 And we receive what we do want, When we by Faith do cry; Faith doth sustain each drooping Saint, And all their needs supply.
