Overwhelmed

“From when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I” (Psalm 61:2).

When everything seems out of hand,

I, on the firm foundation, stand:

On Christ the Rock, whose strength prevails,

Whose love and power never fails.

When overwhelmed my heart — I cry,

Lead to the Rock, higher than I.

I know His saving grace and power,

And I can trust Him every hour.

I’m sheltered safe within His hand,

His promises forever stand.

When overwhelmed…etc.

His blood has washed my sins away,

His grace preserves me every day:

He lives, for me to supplicate — 

My Great High Priest, and Advocate.

When overwhelmed…etc…
