I Turn to Thee in Time of Need

I turn to thee in time of needAnd never turn in vainI see thy fond and fearless smileAnd hope revives again.It gives me strength to struggle onWhate\u27er the strife may beAnd if again my courage failsAgain I turn to thee. Thy timid beauty charm\u27d me firstI breath\u27d a Lover\u27s vowBut littl thought to find the friendWhose strength sustains me now.I deemed thee made for summer\u27s skiesBut in the stormy seaDeserted by all other friendsDear love, I turn to thee. Should e\u27er some keener sorrow throwA shadow o\u27er my mindAnd should I, thoughtless, breathe to theeOne word that is unkindForgive it love! Thy smile will setMy better feelings freeAnd with a look of boundless loveI shall turn to thee
