When in the Hour of Deepest Need

Author: Paul Eber, 1511-69; Catherine Winkworth, 1827-78 Hymnal: Lutheran Service Book #615 (2006) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 When in the hour of deepest need We know not where to look for aid; When days and nights of anxious thought No help or counsel yet have brought. 2 Then is our comfort this alone That we may meet before Your throne; To You, O faithful God, we cry For rescue from our misery. 3 For You have promised, Lord, to heed Your children's cries in time of need Through Him whose name alone is great, Our Savior and our advocate. 4 And so we come, O God, today And all our woes before You lay; For sorely tried, cast down, we stand, Perplexed by fears on ev'ry hand. 5 O from our sins, Lord, turn Your face; Absolve us through Your boundless grace. Be with us in our anguish still; Free us at last from ev'ry ill. 6 So we with all our hearts each day To You our glad thanksgiving pay, Then walk obedient to Your Word, And now and ever praise You, Lord.
