1167. When anxious thoughts assail my mind

Author: Martin Leckebusch

When anxious thoughts assail my mind,
when I begin to doubt your care,
when gloom and sorrow flood my soul,
I bring my fears to you, my God, in prayer.

2. I call to you to answer soon,
to turn my darkness into light,
for life can be a battlefield—
unless you help me, I shall lose the fight!

3. Yet in your endless love I trust,
in your salvation I rejoice:
because you have been good to me
I offer you my praise with heart and voice.
