The Downcast Soul - 193
If you, my soul, plead with God,
And do not receive, keep trusting
In His promises, which are very rich,
And unfailing to help you.
Why are you cast down, O my soul?
And why are you troubled, losing your peace?
Do not be afraid, wait on God,
For very soon, Jesus will come.
He intercedes for you, my soul;
Wait on Him with faith and calm;
Jesus saves you from all your troubles,
And blesses you from the highest heavens.
Soon your sorrows will be ended,
On the joyful day of His coming;
If Christ delays, wait a little longer,
Just a little while, and you will see Him.
