LyicsWhen, in the hour of lonely wo,
I give my sorrows leave to flow,
And anxious fear and dark distrust,
Weigh down my spirit to the dust;
When no e'en friendship's gentle aid
Can heal the wounds the world has made,
O this shall check each rising sigh,--
My Saviour is forever nigh.
His counsels and upholding care
My safety and my comfort are;
And he shall guide me all my days,
Till glory crown the work of grace.
