Text:LORD, My Strength
Author:James Merrick

28c. LORD, My Strength

1 LORD, my strength, to Thee I pray;
Turn not Thou Thine ear away;
Gracious to my vows attend,
While the humble knee I bend.

2 On Thy long-experienced aid
See my hope for ever stay'd:
Thou my shield, my fortress are;
Thou the refuge of my heart.

3 Grant me, LORD, Thy love to share,
Feed me with a Shepherd's care;
Save Thy people from distress,
And Thy fold forever bless.
