  1. O Lord my God, on Thee I'll call
    I am in pains, O hear my cry;
    When floods of water cover me
    Forbid that my heart should backslide.

  2. Thou Lord art friend of the infirm
    To whom shall I make my complaint?
    If not to Thee, and only Thee,
    Who calls the miserable to Him.

  3. Who has e'er wept to Thee in vain?
    Has Thou e'er shunned anyone's cry?
    Art Thou not the One who promised
    No one shall e'er seek Thee in vain?

  4. This could have been my heart's sorrow
    That Thou Lord does not answer pray'r,
    But Thou has been answering my pray'rs
    O Lord, Thou has been my helper.

  5. I know I am needy and poor
    But Thou God will not forget me
    He, for whom Jesus is pleading
    Is set free from all his troubles. Amen.
