Prostrate before his throne of grace,
God sees his mourning saints;
With pity looks on their distress,
And hears their sad complaints.
When for a moment he withdraws,
It gives them inward pain;
He never frowns without a cause,
And soon he smiles again.
With humble patience then I’ll wait,
Till he his love displays;
And then his mercy celebrate
In grateful songs of praise.
