O Thou, whose power stupendous

Upholds the earth and sky,

Thy grace preserving send us,—

To Thee, O Lord! we cry.

From wilds of fearful error,

Wherein we darkly stray,

Oppressed with doubt and terror,

For saving aid we pray.

O God of mercy, hear us!

Our pain, our sorrow, see;

Thy healing pity spare us,

And bring us home to Thee!
