Lyics

Cling to the Mighty One,

Cling in thy grief;

Cling to the Holy one,

He gives relief;

Cling to the Gracious One,

Cling in thy pain;

Cling to the Faithful one,

He will sustain.



Cling to the Living one,

Cling in thy woe;

Cling to the Loving One,

Thro' all below;

Cling to the Pard'ning One,

He speaketh peace;

Cling to the Healing One,

Anguish shall cease.



Cling to the Bleeding one,

Cling to his side;

Cling to the Risen One, 

In him abide;

Cling to the Coming One, 

Hope shall arise;

Cling to the Reigning One,

Joy lights thine eyes.
