Hymnal: A Pocket hymn book, designed as a constant companion for the pious #CXVIII (1788) Lyrics: 1 Whom man forsakes thou wilt not leave,
Ready the outcasts to receive:
Though all my simpleness I own,
And all my faults to thee are known.
2 Ah! wherefore did I ever doubt!
Thou wilt in nowise cast me out,
An helpless soul that comes to thee,
With only sin, and misery.
3 Lord, I am sick, my sickness cure;
I want, do thou enrich the poor:
Under thy mighty hand I stoop;
O lift the abject sinner up!
4 Lord, I am blind, be thou my sight!
Lord, I am weak, be thou my might!
A helper of the helpless be,
And let me find my all in thee! Topics: Petition Languages: English
