Hymns for the Amusement of Children (1791)/Trust in God

Great Source of boundless Power and Grace, Attend my mournful cry; In the dark hour of deep distress, To Thee, to Thee I fly.

Thou art my strength, my life, my stay, Assist my feeble trust; Drive these distressing fears away, And raise me from the dust.

O, let me call thy Grace to mind, And trust thy glorious name; Jehovah pow'rful, wise and kind, For ever is the same.

Thy presence, Lord, can cheer my heart, When earthly comforts die; Thy smile can bid my pains depart, And raise my pleasures high.

Here let me rest, in Thee depend, My God, my Hope, my All; Be Thou my everlasting friend, And I can never fall.
