Hear My Cry - Hymn Lyrics

Hear my cry I pray to Thee
Unto my voice incline Your ear
(Hold me and have mercy upon me) 2
(For You O Lord I’m in great need) 2

My soul is troubled in the deep
And my eyes are full of tears
(Now I remember You indeed) 2
(For Your salvation is near) 2

All the waves came upon me
I was drowned in the deep sea
(I asked for help where it could be) 2
(But in the hands of my dear Lord) 2

My heart is trembling in great fear
And my head is wrapped in weeds
(Out of the depths I cried to Thee) 2
(Save my soul and set me free) 2

God ordered the whale in the sea
To safely drop Jonah in peace
(In the whale’s belly Jonah kneels) 2
(And thanks the Lord for His great deeds) 2
