Hymnal: Psalms, carefully suited to the Christian worship in the United States of America #121 (1791) First Line: When overwhelm'd with grief Lyrics: 1 When, overwhelm'd with grief
My heart within me dies,
Helpless, and far from all relief,
To heav'n I lift mine eyes.
2 Oh lead me to the rock
That’s high above my head,
And make the covert of thy wings
My shelter and my shade.
3 Within thy presence, Lord,
For ever I’ll abide;
Thou art the tower of my defence,
The refuge where I hide.
4 Thou givest me the lot
Of those that fear thy name;
If endless life be their reward,
I shall possess the same. Scripture: Psalm 61:1-6 Languages: English
