LyicsWhat tho' earthly friends may frown,
Why should I dejected be?
Father, let thy will be known,
Let me find my all in Thee.
Never let my soul despair,
God will hear the orphan's prayer.
God will hear, God will hear,
God will hear the orphan's prayer.
Never let my soul despair,
God will hear the orphan's prayer.
Sorrow's child I long have been,
Often for unkindness mourn'd;
Friendless orphan, poor and mean,
By the proud and wealthy scorn'd.
Still to God will I repair,
God will hear the orphan's prayer;
God will hear,
God will hear the orphan's prayer.
Earthly comforts fade and die,
Sorrows oft our joys attend;
But, if we on God rely,
He will prove a constant friend.
On Him I'll cast ev'ry care,
He regards the orphan's prayer;
He regards,
He regards the orphan's prayer.
