Our Only Saviour

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 28 hymnals Topics: Prayer For Deliverance from Trouble First Line: To God, my earnest voice I raise Lyrics: 1 To God my earnest voice I raise, To God my voice imploring prays; Before His face my grief I show And tell my trouble and my woe. 2 When gloom and sorrow compass me, The path I take is known to Thee, And all the toils that foes do lay To snare Thy servant in his way. 3 All unprotected, lo, I stand, No friendly guardian at my hand, No place of flight or refuge near, And none to whom my soul is dear. 4 O Lord, my Saviour, now to Thee, Without a hope besides, I flee, To Thee, my shelter from the strife, My portion in the land of life. 5 Be Thou my help when troubles throng, For I am weak and foes are strong; My captive soul from prison bring, And thankful praises I will sing. 6 The righteous then shall gather round To share the blessing I have found, Their hearts made glad because they see How richly God has dealt with me. Scripture: Psalm 142 Used With Tune: HAMBURG

What evil shall I fear? 2 O Lord, regard me when I cry, In mercy hear me when I speak; Thou bidst me seek Thy face, and I, O Lord, with willing heart reply, Thy face, Lord, will I seek. 3 Hide not Thy face afar from me, For Thou a lone canst help afford; O cast me not away from Thee Nor let my soul forsaken be, My Savior and my Lord. 4 Though earthly friends no pity take, Yet Thy compassion knows no end; E'en though my father shall forsake, E'en though my mother's love shall break, The Lord will be my Friend. 5 Jehovah, guide me in Thy way, And lead me in the path of right; Give me not up unto my foes, That rise to multiply my woes With false and cruel might. 6 My heart had failed in fear and woe Unless in God I had believed, Assured that He would mercy show And that my life His grace should know; Nor was my hope deceived. 7 Fear not, though succor be delayed, Still wait for God, and He will hear; Be strong, nor be thy heart dismayed, Wait, and the Lord shall bring thee aid, Yea, trust and never fear.
