Psalm 151

In my distress,
While on me press
The fears of life,
I’ll trust in Thee,
Who made me free—
And bore my pain and strife.

When them that hate
Stand at my gate—
I’ll say to Thee a prayer.
I know You’ll hear,
And hold me near—
You’ll prove me that You’re there.

When grief and war
My life, abhor,
I know You’ll stand by me—
And with Your hand
You’ll help me stand—
My Stay I know You’ll be.

And with death’s hold,
I’ll face it bold,
For I am Heaven bound—
For, true, the end’s
The Christian’s friend;
New life in Thee is found!
