606. -- |Trust ye in the Lord.| 1 When grief and anguish press me down

606. C. M. Anonymous. "Trust ye in the Lord."

1 When grief and anguish press me down, And hope and comfort flee, I cling, O Father, to thy throne, And stay my heart on thee.

2 When clouds of dark temptation rise, And pour their wrath on me, To thee for aid I turn my eyes, And fix my trust on thee.

3 When death invades my peaceful home, The sundered ties shall be A closer bond in time to come, To bind my heart to thee.

4 Lord, -- "Not my will but thine be done!" My soul from fear set free, Her faith shall anchor at thy throne, And trust alone in thee.
