IN TIME OF NEED by WILLIAM ARTHUR DUNKERLEY

First Line: BETTER THAN I
Last Line: ALL MY NECESSITY.
Subject(s): RELIGION; THEOLOGY;

Better than I,
Thou knowest, Lord,
All my necessity,
And with a word
Thou canst it all supply.
Help other is there none
Save Thee alone;
Without Thee I'm undone.
And so, to Thee I cry, --
O, be Thou nigh!
For, better far than I,
Thou knowest, Lord,
All my necessity.
