Had not the Lord, my rock, my help,
Sustained my fainting head,
My life had now in silence dwelt,
My soul among the dead.
"Alas, my sliding feet!" I cried-
Thy promise was my hope;
Thy grace stood constant at my side,
Thy Spirit bore me up.
While multitudes of mournful thoughts
Within my bosom roll,
Thy boundless love forgives my faults,
Thy comforts cheer my soul.
The powers of earth and sin may rise,
And frame oppressive laws;
But God, my refuge, rules the skies,
He will defend my cause.
