Christ in Song 526
Father, We Come to Thee
1Father, we come to Thee,
No other help have we,
Thou wilt our refuge be,
On Thee we call;
Earth is but dark and drear Without Thy presence near;
Be Thou our comfort here,
Father of all.
RefrainFather, we come to Thee,
Turn not away;
Helpless we come to Thee,
Hear while we pray.
2Save from our many foes,
Save from our earthly woes,
Be Thou our soul's repose In time of need;
Fearful are we and weak,
To us sweet courage speak;
Thy mighty arm we seek For strength indeed.
3Give us Thy grace divine,
Seal us forever Thine,
Our wayward feet incline From sin to flee.
O guide us we implore, 'Till weary life is o'er,
And on a brighter shore We dwell with Thee.
