Great Source of boundless power and grace!
Attend my mournful cry;
In hours of dark and deep distress,
To thee alone I fly.
Thou art my Strength, my Life, my Stay:
Assist my feeble trust;
Oh, drive my gloomy fears away,
And raise me from the dust.
Fain would I call thy grace to mind,
And trust thy glorious name;
Jehovah, powerful, wise, and kind,
For ever is the same.
Thy, presence, Lord, can cheer my heart,
When earthly comforts die;
Thy voice can bid my pains depart,
And raise my pleasures high.
Here let me rest—on thee depend,
My God, my Hope, my All;
Be thou my everlasting Friend,
And I shall never fall.
