I will call out to God to restore me again.

Oh Jesus, my Saviour, be with me tonight.
When strong winds come lashing the walls of my home,
I'll turn then to Jesus who sits on the throne,
And call out for strength to endure such a storm
In the pitch black of midnight, I'll pray for the dawn.
And when I draw close to the end of my days,
When all of life's colours have faded to grey,
I shall not despair I will wait for the dawn,
When the Lord in his mercy will carry me home.
