The Lion That on Sampson Roared (EN 258)

EN 258 The Lion That on Sampson Roared

Judg.14.14

Versi Version 1

1

The lion that on Sampson roared,

And thirsted for his blood;

With honey afterwards was stored,

And furnished him with food.

2

Believers, as they pace along,

With many lions meet;

But gather sweetness from the strong,

And from the eater, meat.

3

The lions rage and roar in vain,

For Jesus is their Shield;

Their losses prove a certain gain,

Their troubles comfort yield.

4

The world and Satan join their strength,

To fill their souls with fears;

But crops of joy they reap at length,

From what they sow in tears.

5

Afflictions make them love the Word,

Stir up their hearts to prayer;

And many precious proofs afford,

Of their Redeemer’s care.

6

The lions roar but cannot kill,

Then fear them not, my friends;

They bring us, though against their will,

The honey Jesus sends.
