8880. To Thee, Dear Lord, I Go

1 Remember me, dear Lord, today,
My sorrow Thou dost know;
My heart is pressed with care and grief,
To Thee, dear Lord, I go.

Refrain:
To Thee, dear Lord, to Thee, I go,
Thou canst sustain and comfort me,
To Thee, dear Lord, to Thee, I go.
To Thee, dear Lord, I go.

2 The floods of grief around me rise,
The winds of trouble blow;
Thou art the rock I’m resting on,
To Thee, dear Lord, I go. [Refrain]

3 Thou, only Thou, hast power to heal
The sorrows here below;
Thy love will soothe the stricken heart,
To Thee, dear Lord, I go. [Refrain]

4 In every trial that we meet,
Thy loving help bestow;
In time of grief, in time of need,
To Thee, dear Lord, I go. [Refrain]
