Lyrics
1. O Lord of Heaven hear my cry, For overwhelm'd is my heart. Lead me to that Rock—high'r than I; Thou ever my Fortress art. 2. I cry from the ends of the earth, My soul doth thirst after Thee. I long to be in Your presence. I'll ever abide in Thee. 3. I sing praise to You forever Under Your wings I abide. Thou hast heard my lowly worship And You're ever at my side.
