Tune: Need
('I need thee every hour')
Psalm 40 v. 1-4 and v.16-17
**********
I waited patient for
The Lord, He sure
Did hear me, inclined to
Me, helped anew
Chorus
But I am poor and needy
Ye the Lord thinks on me
You are my help, and saviour
And my soul's cure
He brought me out of pit
Deep, my way lit
With His presence, He set
Me on rock yet - Chorus
And He has put new song
In my mouth strong
E'en praise to my God, so
Mercies does show - Chorus
Blessed they that make the Lord
Their trust, His word
They rely on, not proud
Nor lies enshroud - Chorus
Let all they that Him seek
Be glad, the meek
Glad in Him, magnify
Salvation nigh - Chorus

Another good hymn Orchi that focuses on something we can do as opposed to asking for something that we can't. Well done
