Help me, O Lord,
the God of my salvation!
I have no hope, no refuge but in Thee;
Help me to make
this perfect consecration,
In life or death Thine evermore to be.
Help me, O Lord, to keep
my pledge unbroken!
Guard Thou my ways,
my thoughts, my tongue, my heart;
Help me to trust the word
which Thou hast spoken,
That from Thy paths
my feet may ne’er depart.
Help me, O Lord, when
sore temptations press me!
Oh, lift the clouds that hide Thee
from my sight!
Help me, O Lord,
when anxious cares distress me,
To look beyond, where all
is calm and bright.
Help me, O Lord! My strength
is only weakness;
Thine, Thine the power
by which alone I live;
Help me each day to bear
the cross with meekness,
Till Thou at last the
promised crown shalt give.
