When we are in deepest need

When we are in deepest need

and know not what to do,

and find neither help nor counsel,

although we worry morning and night,

then it is our only solace

together to frequently

call upon you, O constant God,

for deliverance from our fear and need.

Consider not our great sins,

absolve us out of grace;

stand by us in our misery,

make us free from all affliction;

So that from our hearts we can

thank you afterward with joy,

obedient to your every word,

and praise you at all times everywhere.
