389b | The Psalter#390 | 391a |
Text: | Earnest Desire and Supplication |
Tune: | JEWETT |
Composer: | von Weber |
1 Lord, hear me in distress,
Regard my suppliant cry,
And in Thy faithfulness
And righteousness reply.
In judgment do not cause
Thy servant to be tried;
Before Thy holy laws
No man is justified.
2 To Thee I stretch my hands,
Let me not plead in vain;
I wait as weary lands
Wait for refreshing rain.
O let the morn return,
Let mercy light my day;
For Thee in faith I yearn,
O guide me in the way.
3 By Thy good Spirit led
From trouble and distress,
My erring feet shall tread
The path of uprightness.
O Lord, for Thy Name's sake
Revive my fainting heart;
My soul from trouble take,
For just and true Thou art.
