The Prayer of Necessity

Author: Newton Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #396 (1844) Meter: 8.7 First Line: Could the creatures help or ease us Lyrics: 1 Could the creatures help or ease us, Seldom should we think of prayer; Few, if any, come to Jesus, Till reduced to self-despair, Long we either slight or doubt him, But, when all the means we try Prove we cannot do without him, Then at last to him we cry. 2 Fear thou not, distressed believer; Venture on his mighty name; He is able to deliver, And his love is still the same. Can his pity or his power Suffer thee to pray in vain? Wait but his appointed hour, And thy suit thou shalt obtain. Topics: Prayer and Watchfulness Languages: English
