O God! my Strength, my Hope,
On thee cast my care,
With humble confidence look up,
And know thou hearést prayer.
Oh for a godly fear,
A quick, discerning eye,
That looks to thee when sin is near,
And sees the tempter fly!—
A spirit still prepared,
And armed with jealous care,
For ever standing on its guard,
And watching unto prayer!—
A soul inured to pain,
To hardship, grief, and loss;
Bold to take up, firm to sustain
My dear Redeemer’s cross.
Lord, let me still abide,
Nor from my hope remove,
Till thou my patient spirit guide
Into thy perfect love.
