Lyrics by Henry Francis Lyte (based on Psalm 120)
Music by Jonathon Smith

lyrics

On God I've called in trouble's hour,
And never have I called in vain
Again afflictions 'round me lower
Lord, hear and help again

A stranger's lot, a pilgrim's fare
Is all I meet below
In every sweet I find a snare
In every smile, a foe

Woe is me, that I must roam
So long in this land of tears
When shall my spirit reach her home
Above all foes and fears?

There is a peace that none can break,
A joy that ne'er shall flee
When shall I lay me down to wake
To these, oh Lord, and thee?
