Gems of Song ‎#33

33. Help and Relieve

1 O Lord, the storm is high,
Dark clouds shut out the sky;
To Thee I trembling fly;
Comfort and save;

2 Hark, hark, the tempest’s roar!
For me throw wide the door;
My confidence restore,
Comfort and save.

3 O God, temptation’s nigh;
Sin clouds the azure sky;
To Thee for aid I fly;
Help and relieve.

4 O Father, hear my cry;
And if I live or die,
Be Thou, my Saviour, nigh;
Help and relieve.
