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; O 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.
