495. My spirit looks to God alone

1 My spirit looks to God alone;
My rock and refuge is His throne:
In all my fears, in all my straits,
My soul on His salvation waits.

2 Trust Him, ye saints, in all your ways,
Pour out your hearts before His face:
When helpers fail and foes invade,
God is our all-sufficient Aid.

Amen.
