Bethesda
Author: Mary A. McKee Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #482 First Line: I come, O Lord, when troubled waves are stirring Refrain First Line: Help me in, help me in! Lyrics: 1. I come, O Lord, when troubled waves are stirring
The healing fount that cures the touch of sin;
I come in hope, no faintness then deterring,
But there are none, O Lord, to help me in.
Refrain
Help me in, help me in!
I am tired now of sin;
Help me in, help me in!
I may life eternal win!
2. I come, O Lord, when mercy is extended,
And angel wings are brooding softly o’er;
The ways of sin, that I had once defended,
I leave them all, and I can do no more. [Refrain]
3. I come, O Lord, though others may be hasting
With stronger steps to seek the way of life;
I come in faith, no precious moment wasting,
While earth and Heaven with love and peace are rife. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [I come, O Lord, when troubled waves are stirring]
