Hear, gracious God! my humble moan,
I To thee I breathe my sighs;
When will the mournful night be gone?
When shall my joys arise?
Yet, though my soul in darkness mourns,
Thy promise is my stay;
Here would I rest till light returns:
Thy presence makes my day.
Come, Lord, and with celestial peace
Relieve my aching heart;
O smile, and bid my sorrows cease,
And all their gloom depart.
Then shall my drooping spirit rise.
And bless thy healing rays.
And change these deep complaining sighs
For songs of sacred praise.
---Alternative verses---
Hear, gracious Lord! my humble prayer,
I To thee I breathe my sighs;
When will the mournful night be gone?
When shall my joys arise?
