Overwhelmed — Part 3

“When my spirit was overwhelmed within me, then Thou knewest my path” (Psalm 142:3).

4. There is a place where I can hide,

 When troubles press on every side;

 But oh, how quickly I forget,

 And in distress, struggle and fret.

5. And when I take my eyes from Thee,

 And sink beneath the raging sea;

 Recall my heart — and let me fly

 Back to the Rock, higher than I.

6. Soon all the trials will be past,

 And I shall reach the goal at last;

 Beyond the tears, and fears, and grief,

 Glorious departing, sweet relief.

 Refrain for last verse:

 Then I shall praise Him in the sky;

 Jesus the Rock, higher than I.

6-8s — Tune: St. Catherine
(Behold The Saviour At The Door).
