William Billings - Hear my prayer, O Lord, my God - текст песни (слова)

Hear my prayer, O Lord, my God,
 Consider my calling.
 Hold not Thy peace at my tears.
 For I am a stranger with Thee,
 And a sojourner as all my fathers were.
 O spare me a little while,
 That I may recover my strength,
 Before I go hence and be no more seen.
