Lyics

My soul with long expectance faints
To see thy saving grace;
Yet still on thy unerring word
My confidence I place,
My confidence I place,
My confidence I place.


My very eyes consume and fail, 
With waiting for thy word:
O when wilt thou thy kind relief
And promised aid afford,
And promised aid afford,
And promised aid afford.


Thy wonted kindness, Lord, restore,
My drooping heart to cheer;
That by thy righteous statutes I 
My life's whole course may steer,
My life's whole course may steer,
My life's whole course may steer.
