Marvel Not

Marvel not when friends for­sake you

For the world is ev­er vain;

Only seek­ing sin­ful plea­sures

And the joys of earth­ly gain.

Marvel not whate’er be­fall you

Trust the Sav­ior all the way

For one day He’ll bear you safe­ly

To the realms of bright­est day.

Marvel not

oh! un­be­liev­er

If your way is rough and bare;

Marvel not

for with­out Je­sus

You no ho­ly joys shall share.

Marvel not that Sa­tan’s pow­er

Can al­lure a soul to strife;

Keep your own heart fixed on Je­sus

And you’ll win eter­nal life.
