All my trust on thee is stayed, all my help from thee I bring; cover my defenseless head with the shadow of thy wing. 3 Thou, O Christ, art all I want, more than all in thee I find: raise the fallen, cheer the faint, heal the sick and lead the blind.

Thou of life the fountain art; freely let me take of thee; spring thou up within my heart, rise to all eternity. Scripture: Exodus 33:22 Used With Tune: MARTYN
