And pitied every groan;
Long as I live, when troubles rise
I'll hasten to His throne.
2 I love the Lord; He bowed His ear,
And chased my grief away;
O let my heart no more despair
While I have breath to pray.
3 The Lord beheld me sore distressed;
He bade my pains remove;
Return, my soul, to God, thy rest,
For thou hast known His love. Topics: The Christian Life Prayer and Intercession; Prayer Scripture: Psalm 31:23 Used With Tune: MANOAH
