When my heart is distressed and I faint by the way,
And the darkness is as black as a pall,
I will cast off my fear and to God I will pray—
To God who will hear when I call.
I will pray, yes, I'll pray, unto God I will pray,
Tho' the billows should over me roll,
I will pray, yes, I'll pray, unto God I will pray,
And he will deliver my soul.
When I sin against God and my soul knows its guilt,
And I know that I've wondered away,
I will turn to the cross and my sin will confess,
To God for forgiveness I'll pray.
I will pray, yes, I'll pray, unto God I will pray,
Tho' the billows should over me roll,
I will pray, yes, I'll pray, unto God I will pray,
And he will deliver my soul.
When my last hour comes and death knocks at my door,
And the summons my soul must obey,
I will trust in the cross and to Christ I will cling,
To Jesus when dying I'll pray.
I will pray, yes, I'll pray, unto God I will pray,
Tho' the billows should over me roll,
I will pray, yes, I'll pray, unto God I will pray,
And he will deliver my soul.
