God, my rock, my strength sustaining

Verse 1

God my rock, my strength sustaining, Why cast off my soul distressed? Why am I in grief complaining, By the pow’r of foes oppressed?

Chorus

I shall be satisfied, I shall be satisfied, When I wake with Thy likeness; I shall be satisfied, I shall be satisfied, When I wake with Thy likeness.

Verse 2

Now Thy light and truth forth sending, Let them lead and guide me still, Guide me to Thy house ascending, Lead me to Thy holy hill.

Verse 3

There Thine altar, Lord, surrounding, God, my God, my boundless joy, Harp and voice aloud resounding, Praise shall all my pow’rs employ.

Verse 4

Why my soul cast down and grieving? Why within me such distress? Hope in God, His help receiving, God my life, I yet shall bless.
