Begone, unbelief,
My
Em7
Savior is
A7
near,
Will
Em7
surely ap
A7
pear;
By
D
prayer let me
D7
wrestle,
And
G
He will per
Gm
form;
With
D
Christ in the
Bm
vessel,
I
Em7
smile
Em7 -A7
at the
D
storm.
2
Though dark be my way,
Though dark be my way,
Since He is my Guide,
’Tis mine to obey,
’Tis His to provide;
Though cisterns be broken,
And creatures all fail,
The word He hath spoken
Shall surely prevail.
D
Though dark be my
Bm
way,
Since
Em7
He is my
A7
Guide,
’Tis
Em7
His to
A7
provide;
Though
D
cisterns be
D7
broken,
And
G
creatures all
Gm
fail,
The
D
word He hath
Bm
spoken
Shall
Em7 Em7 -A7
surely
D
prevail.
3
His love, in time past,
His love, in time past,
Forbids me to think
He'll leave me at last
In trouble to sink:
Each sweet Ebenezer
I have in review
Confirms His good pleasure
To help me quite through.
D
His love, in time
Bm
past,
Em7
Forbids me to
A7
think
He'll
D
leave me at

last
In
Em7
trouble to
A7
sink:
D
Confirms His good
Bm
pleasure
To
Em7
help
Em7 -A7
me quite
D
through.

Why should I complain
Why should I complain
Of want or distress,
Temptation or pain?
He told me no less;
The heirs of salvation,
I know from His Word,
Through much tribulation
Must follow their Lord.
D
Why should I
Bm
complain
Of
Em7
want or
A7
distress,
He
Em7
told me no

less;
The

heirs of
D7
salvation,
I
G
know from His
Gm
Word,
Through
D
much
Bm
tribulation
Must
Em7 Em7 -A7
follow their
D
Lord.
5
How bitter that cup
How bitter that cup
No heart can conceive,
Which He drank quite up,
That sinners might live!
His way was much rougher
And darker than mine;
Did Christ, my Lord, suffer,
And shall I repine?
No
Em7
heart can
A7
conceive,
Which
D
He drank quite
Bm
up,
That
Em7
sinners might
A7
live!
His
D
way was much
D7
rougher
And
G
darker than
Gm
mine;
Did
D
Christ, my Lord,
Bm
suffer,
And
Em7
shall
Em7 -A7
I
D
repine?
6
Since all that I meet
Since all that I meet
Shall work for my good,
The bitter is sweet,
The medicine, food;
Though painful at present,
'Twill cease before long,
And then, oh, how pleasant
The conqueror's song!
D
Since all that I
Bm
meet
Shall
Em7
work for my
A7
good,
The
D
bitter is
Bm
sweet,
The
Em7
medicine,
A7
food;
Though
D
painful at
D7
present,
'Twill
G
cease before
Gm
long,
And
D
then, oh, how
Bm
pleasant
The
Em7 Em7 -A7
conqueror's
D
song!

This song has become my prayer. Reading the life study of Matthew and oh Lord how I need to learn to just believe. O Lord be gone unbelief.
"If we would be associated with Christ we must repudiate ourselves and take Christ as everything. This is believing in Christ, and this believing is righteousness in the eyes of God. Do not try to do anything, simply believe in Christ. "
Takoradi, Ghana
Oh what a hymn. This really moved me as I'm assured that God is with me. The words in the 2nd stanza 'the word he has spoken shall surely prevail' are so assuring.

What a wonderful, comforting and encouraging hymn, which I had never been familiar with until Pastor Alistair Begg referred to it in this morning's sermon.
Kumasi, Ashanti, Ghana
This hymn has helped me through difficult times.
Begone unbelief!
