Hymn 618
O Lord my God, on Thee I’ll call
Scripture: Ps. 77:1
1
O Lord my God, on Thee I’ll call
I am in pains, O hear my cry;
When floods of water cover me
Forbid that my heart should backslide.
2
Thou Lord art friend of the infirm
To whom shall I make my complaint?
If not to Thee, and only Thee,
Who calls the miserable to Him.
3
Who has e’er wept to Thee in vain?
Has Thou e’er shunned anyone’s cry?
Art Thou not the One who promis’d
No one shall e’er seek Thee in vain?
4
This could have been my heart sorrcw
That Thou Lord does not answer pray’r,
But Thou has been answe'ring my pray’rs
O Lord, Thou has been my helper.
5
I know I am needy and poor
But Thou God will not forget me
He, for whom Jesus is pleading
Is set free from all his troubles.
