By Trouble Oft I'm Overwhelmed

Author: C C Alleyne Hymnal: The A.M.E. Zion Hymnal #654 (1999) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 By trouble oft I’m overwhelmed, By snares oft circumscribed, And yet thou thinkest Lord on me, Thou’rt ever near my side. 2 My earthly refuges doth fail, When foes my soul assail, And men deceive and friends deny, But Thou doth hear my cry. 3 The path I take Thou knowest Lord, It is beset with thorns, But I will ne’er its track forsake While glory’s in its wake. 4 It leads to bliss, O boundless love, From cross to crown I go, Then shall I shirk the cross below, And lose the crown above? 5 Awake, my soul and run thy race, Lay every weight aside, Thou soon shalt see thy Saviour’s face And 'round His throne abide. AMEN. Topics: Zion Connectional Hymns Scripture: Psalm 142 Languages: English Tune Title: COMFORT
