In this lone hour of deep distress,
When heavy sorrows round me press,
Encouraged by Thy gracious word
I trust Thee as the widow's God.
Martin lies in death's embrace,
The grave is now his resting place;
0, as I pass beneath Thy rod
Reveal Thyself the widow's God.
Assuage my grief, remove my fears,
Suppress my murm'ring, dry my tears,
Help me to own Thee as my Lord,
And bless Thee as the widow's God.
Be Thou my counsellor and stay,
Protect by night and guide by day;
Then, as I travel life's rough road
I'll praise Thee as the widow's God.
A FRIEND.
