One Look of Mercy...

"...Thou seest what floods of sorrow rise,

And beat upon my soul;

Our trouble to another cries,

Billows on billows roll.

From fear to hope, and hope to fear,

My shipwrecked soul is tossed;

Till I am tempted to despair

To give up all for lost.

Yet through the stormy clouds I'll look

Once more to Thee my God!

Oh, fix my feet upon a rock,

Beyond the gaping flood.

One look of mercy from Thy face

Will set my heart at ease;

One all-commanding word of grace

Will make the tempest cease."
