“If God Himself Be for Me”

text by Paul Gerhardt

As a part of our Hymns for Hope: A Pandemic Playlist series, we’ve been gathering hymns of particular encouragement.

Cheryl Magness from The Federalist writes this about "If God Himself Be for Me”

draws on Romans 8:31-39, defiantly daring Satan to try, just try, to harm anyone who has been claimed by Christ: “If God Himself be for me, I may a host defy; For when I pray, before me My foes, confounded, fly. If Christ, the head and master, Befriend me from above, What foe or what disaster Can drive me from His love?”
