Overwhelmed
“The Lord is my Rock” (2 Samuel 22:2).
(Continued from September 2)
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.
When overwhelmed my heart – I cry,
Lead to the Rock, higher than I.
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.
When overwhelmed…etc.
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.
When overwhelmed…etc.
