Author: Michael Perry Hymnal: Psalms for All Seasons #57A (2012) Meter: 6.6.8.6.6 Lyrics: 1 Be gracious to me, Lord,
and hold my spirit fast,
that I may shelter by your side
until the storm is past,
until the storm in past.
2 Though snares are set for me,
yet I will sleep in peace,
for I have asked the care of God
whose love shall never cease,
whose love shall never cease.
3 My soul, awake and sing--
such boundless love recall,
exalt God's name above the skies,
God's glory over all,
God's glory over all.
