Nevedben, Jézus, Bízhatok!

Representative Text

1 Ha ádáz had kívül-belül
Megfélemlít és ostromol,
Vesztő szándékkal vesz körül,
Rám támad bűn, világ, pokol,
Én mindig bátran szólhatok:
"Nevedben, Jézus, bízhatok!"

2 Egész világ, tengernyi nép
Bár lelkem ellen esküdött,
Pusztító, rontó harcra lép,
Megváltóm véd hitpajzs mögött,
És hittel újra szólhatok:
"Nevedben, Jézus, bízhatok!"

3 A Sátán karmai közül
Ki menthet ki? Hisz’ oly erős!
Ám Jézus az, ki lesz fölül,
Erősebb Ő, az égi Hős,
Én Tőle mindent várhatok!
"Nevedben, Jézus, bízhatok."

4 Nevedben van szabadítás!
Te győztél bűn és sír felett,
Ó, míly nagy ez a megváltás!
Megmondhatója ki lehet!
Előtted térdet hajthatok,
Nevedben, Jézus, bízhatok!
