In Dire Straits

A-lthough you're in dire straits, 
N-ever fear the stumbling block; 
G-et up off your knees, 
E-agerly find the
L-uck.

F-ight fair and square, 
A-ugust twenty-sixth Saturday; 
B-rave the serious trouble, 
R-ugged wind will fade away.
I-n dire straits, pray to God, 
C-ry for help and rescue; 
A-sk the Lord to bring
N-othing but His love so true.
T-ake shelter in God's arms, evading the hell's gates; 
E-arnestly learn to pray when you're in dire straits.
