Jesus, in sickness and in pain,
Be near to succour me,
My sinking spirit still sustain;
To Thee I turn, to Thee.
When cares and sorrows thicken round,
And nothing bright I see,
In Thee alone can help be found;
To Thee I turn, to Thee.
Should strong temptations fierce assail,
And Satan buffet me,
Then in Thy strength will I prevail,
While still I turn to Thee.
Through all my pilgrimage below,
Whate’er my lot may be,
In joy or sadness, weal or woe,
Jesus, I’ll turn to Thee.
---Alternative verses---
Should strong temptations fierce assail,
As if to ruin me,
Then in Thy strength will I prevail,
While still I turn to Thee.
