It Is Just Like Him

Author: F. A. G. Hymnal: The Joy Bells of Canaan or Burning Bush Songs No. 2 #57 (1905) First Line: In times when the flesh is so weak and frail Refrain First Line: It is just like Him, it is just like Him Lyrics: 1 In times when the flesh is so weak and frail, In times when the doubts and fears assail, I will look unto God, naught mine eye shall dim; Then my Father comes close, it is just like Him. Refrain: It is just like Him, it is just like Him; Then our Father comes close, it is just like Him. 2 When the powers of Hell would ensnare my soul, And turn me away from the Heav’nly goal, When the spirit is willing but flesh is weak, It is then that I love to hear Father speak. [Refrain] 3 My Father doth all of my needs supply, And He knoweth them all better far than I; All my sins He forgives, all diseases heals, Thus my Father to me all His love reveals. [Refrain] 4 When the victory’s won, and the foes all flee, It is then that I need Father near to me; Just to rest all secure in His tender care, And be kept from all sin, is my daily pray’r. [Refrain] Scripture: Psalm 103:14 Languages: English Tune Title: [In times when the flesh is so weak and frail]
