Text:	God of our salvation!
Tune:	LUELLA
Composer:	H. N. Whitney

1 God of our salvation!
Unto thee we pray;
Hear our supplication,
Be our strength and stay.
Wretched and unworthy.
Poor, and sick and blind,
Prostrate we adore thee,
Call thy grace to mind.

2 He that dwelleth near thee,
Safely shall abide;
Ever love and fear thee.
In thy strength confide.
Sure is thy protection,
Safe is thy defence,
While in deep affliction,
Woe, or pestilence.

3 God of our salvation!
Saviour, Prince of Peace!
Boundless thy compassion,
Infinite thy grace.
While with love unceasing,
Humbly we adore:
Grant us thy rich blessing,
And we ask no more.
