I didn’t know what song to do today, so reached for my hymnbook, this is song 27 for me. The tune we sing it to is Hanover, but there are other tunes. I shared what I am most familar with to be honest.
This hymn was written by Charles Webster. If you want to know more about the Wesley brothers, I found this page interesting. Charles Webster wrote a song the reminds us of who we are and who God is. What our job is and God’s gloriousness.
Sore troubled that we in Jesus rejoice;
The floods they are roaring, but Jesus is here;
While we are adoring, He always is near.
When devils engage, the billows arise,
And horribly rage, and threaten the skies:
Their fury shall never our steadfastness shock,
The weakest believer is built on a rock.







I enjoyed reading through these lyrics. I am not familiar with this hymn.
I have been singing this song since I was a youth
