Why should thy face, where mercies dwell
Its beams of majesty conceal,
Regardless of the woes that wait
Around our long-afflicted state?
Behold, our soul with sorrow bends,
And down to dust, our life descends;
And, while thine arm its aid denies,
Prostrate on earth, deserted lies.
3 Thy mercy, Lord, alone we claim;
Redeem us, and exalt thy name:
Rise for our help, almighty Lord!
Salvation shall attend thy Word.
