My soul with patience waits
for thee, the living Lord:
my hopes are on thy promise built,
thy never-failing word.
My longing eyes look out
for thy enlivening ray,
more duly than the morning watch
to spy the dawning day.
In thee trust, my God;
no bounds thy mercy knows;
the plenteous source and spring from which
eternal succor flows.
Whose friendly streams to us
Supplies in want convey;
A healing spring, a spring to cleanse,
And wash our guilt away.
---Alternative verses---
Let Israel trust in God;
no bounds his mercy knows;
the plenteous source and spring from whence
eternal succor flows.
