Hymn 495 – O Lord my God, on Thee I'll call | C&S English Hymnary

1. O Lord my God, on Thee I'll call I am in pain, O hear my cry When floods of water o’er me roll Forbide that my heart should retreat. 2. Thou Lord art friend of the infirm To whom shall I make my complaint? If not to Thee, and only Thee Who calls the miserable to Him. 3. Who has e‘er wept to Thee in vain Has Thou e‘er shunned anyone's cry Art Thou not the One who promis'd No one shall e‘er suck Thee in vain. 4. This could have been my hearts sorrow That Thou Lord does not answer pray‘r But Thou has been answ‘ring my pray'rs O Lord, my helper Thou has been. 5. I know I am needy and poor But Thou God will not me forget He, for whom Jesus ever plead He from his troubles all is free AMEN
