Martha
Yea, I believe, although death's cloud
Enwrap my soul in gloom;
Thou are the Christ, the Son of God,
The Saviour that should come; -
Yea, Lord, I do believe!

Yea, I believe; what though the grave
Hath won my love from me;
I felt that Thou hadst power to save,
And still do trust in Thee; -
Yea, Lord, I do believe!

Yea, I believe; through the ages past
Thy coming voice has heard;
The promised King has come at last,
My Saviour and my God; -
Yea, I do believe!

Yea, I believe; Lord, let this hour
Some gracious token give;
O, grant a sweet, reviving power,
That others may believe; -
Yea, Lord, I do believe!
