1. O Thou God of my salvation,
Day and night I cried to Thee;
Hear my humble supplication,
Quickly bow Thine ear to me.
Refrain:
Lord, bow Thine ear, and hear me;
Bow down Thine ear and hear me;
For day and night I cry, (to Thee,)
I cry to Thee, to Thee.
2. Mourns my eye, my powers languish,
Sore affliction presses me;
Lord, I cry to Thee in anguish,
Daily stretch my hands to Thee.
3. But, O Lord, at dawn awaking,
Prayer and cries I’ll send to Thee;
Why, my God, my soul forsaking,
Hidest Thou Thy face from me?
