1. In the hour of trial,
Jesus pray for me;
Lest by base denial,
I depart from Thee.
When Thou seest me waver,
With a look recall;
Nor for fear or favor,
Suffer me to fall.
2. If, with sore affliction,
Thou in love chastise,
Pour Thy benediction
On this sacrifice.
Freely on Thine altar
I will lay my will,
And tho’ flesh may falter,
Bless and praise Thee still.
3. When my lamp low burning,
Sinks in mortal pain;
Earth to earth returning,
Dust to dust again;
On Thy Truth relying,
In that hour of strife.
Jesus, take me, dying
To eternal life.
