God of my life, to Thee I call

Author: William Cowper Hymnal: The Hymnal #647 (1895) Lyrics: 1 God of my life, to Thee I call; Afflicted, at Thy feet I fall; When the great water-floods prevail, Leave not my trembling heart to fail. 2 Friend of the friendless and the faint, Where should I lodge my deep complaint? Where but with Thee, whose open door Invites the helpless and the poor? 3 Did ever mourner plead with Thee. And Thou refuse that mourner's plea? Does not the word still fixed remain, That none shall seek Thy face in vain? 4 That were a grief I could not bear, Didst Thou not hear and answer prayer; But a prayer-hearing, answering God Supports me under every load. 5 Poor though I am, despised, forgot, Yet God, my God, forgets me not; And He is safe, and must succeed, For whom the Lord vouchsafes to plead. Amen.
