Great God! To thee I make
My wants and sorrows known;
And with an humble hope
Approach thine awful throne;
Tho’ by my sins deserving hell,
I’Il not despair, for who can tell?
To thee, who by a word
My drooping soul canst cheer,
And by thy Spirit, form
Thy glorious image there!
My foes subdue, my fears dispel,
I’ll daily seek, for who can tell ?
In danger or distress,
To thee alone I fly;
Implore thy pow’rful help,
And at thy footstool lie:
My case bemoan, my wants reveal,
And patient wait, for who can tell?
My heart misgives me oft,
And conscience storms within;
One gracious look from thee,
Will make it all serene:
Satan suggests that I shall dwell
In endless fames, but who can tell?
Curst unbelief, begone,
Ye doubts, fly swift away:
God hath an ear to hear,
While I’ve a heart to pray:
If he be mine, all will be well,
For ever so, and who can tell?
