476 The Throne of Grace

Words: Isaac Watts, 1721

Music: Buford McGraw, 1960

Meter: Common Meter (8,6,8,6)

Oh, that I knew the secret place,
Where I might find my God,
I’d spread my want before His face,
And pour my woes abroad.
Arise, my soul, from deep distress,
And banish ev’ry fear,
He calls thee to His throne of grace,
To spread thy sorrows there.
