iron is the greatest of all strength

away patent medicines and nauseous

of thousands of persons might be
saved, who now die every year from

God of the ancient days,
And of the days that are
Whose are the everlasting ways

We sing Thy love and praise.
Thou art the same today
And ever as of old;
And so we dare to come and pray,
With hearts made bold,
To seek Thy face Away.
While we confess with shame
The nations sins and shams,
We come to Thee and dare to claim
The power that Gains
And chastens in His name.
God Of the nations hear
The passion prayers and heed
The helpless cry. the tear
OF all in need,
And hush the hearts of fear.
Soothe with the tender hands
OF love the throbbing brow;
And over all the stricken laads
Speak, where and how
Thy love controls, commands.
