Author: E. R. Charles; J. M. Altenburg; L. D. Reed Hymnal: Wartburg Hymnal #232 (1918) Hymnal Title: Wartburg Hymnal Lyrics: 1 Be not dismayed, thou little flock,
Although the foe's fierce battle shock,
Loud on all sides, assail thee.
Though o'er thy fall they laugh secure,
Their triumph cannot long endure;
Let not thy courage fail thee.
2 Thy cause is God's--go at His call,
And to His hands commit thine all;
Fear thou no ill impending:
His Gid'on shall arise for thee,
God's word and people manfully,
In God's own time, defending.
3 Amen, Lord Jesus, hear our cry;
Stir up Thy power, come from on high,
Defend Thy congregation;
So shall Thy church, through endless days,
Give thanks to Thee and chant Thy praise
In joy and adoration. Topics: Reformation, Church, Missions
Be not dismayed, thou little flock
