(please choose your own tune)

When friends entrusted let you down
and wish to “paint you black”,
with icy looks they on you frown
and turn on you their back!

Then bitterness will soon be there,
it´s hard with grief to cope,
our own strength can´t those sorrows bear,
Christ is, though, still your hope!

His name is like that mighty tower
to which the righteous flee, (Prov. 18:10)
in that antagonizing hour
when no way out you see!

To be forsaken is no shame
as follow´r of the Lamb,
who also has that Yahweh name,
which is the great “I am!”

So do commit your case to Him,
“that judgeth righteously”, (1 Pet. 2:23)
sing gladly your thanksgiving hymn,
for lo, enthroned is He!
