Lyics

AND will not Jesus hear

His children when they cry?

Yes--though he may a while forbear,

He'll help them from on high.



His nature, truth, and love,

Engage them on his side;

When they are grieved, his bowels move

They will not be deceived.



Then let us earnest be,

And never faint in prayer;

He wills our importunity,

And makes our cause his care.
