deliver us from the gathering storm

Deliver us from the gathering storm,

unworthy though we are.

Keep us living safe from harm,

and hold us in your arms.

Full of dread and dispair are we.

Sinless never more to be.

Deliver us from the gathering storm,

unworthy though we are.

Deliver us from the gathering storm,
and brighten all our nights.
Keep us from the hour of doom,
and guide us by your light.

Full of dread and dispair are we.
Sinless never more to be.
Deliver us from the gathering storm,
unworthy though we are.
