LyicsWhen o-verwhelmed with grief,
My heart with-in me dies;
Help-less, and far from all re-lief,
To heaven I lift mine eyes.
Oh lead me to the Rock
That's high above my head,
And make the covert of thy wings
My shelter and my shade.
Within thy presence, Lord,
Forever I'll abide;
Thou art the tower of my defense,
The refuge where I hide.
