To thee, O Lord, my heavenly king,
Now will my soul draw near;
Thankful of this sweet truth to sing,
That thou, my God, wilt hear.
Tho’ l am poor and needy too,
And scarce know what to say;
And tho’ my words are faint and few,
My God will hear me pray.
Thro’ Christ I come, and mercy claim,
Who lives to intercede;
For in his dear adored name,
My God will hear me plead.
Tho’ oft with sins, and doubts, and fears,
My soul is much cast down;
And tho' o'erwhelm'd. With sighs and tears,
‘ My God will hear me groan.
Then whilst my life and breath remain,
I’ll humbly persevere;
And when to glory I attain,
My God will hear me there.
