Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #524 (1899) Hymnal Title: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes Lyrics: 1 In the hour of trial,
Jesus, plead for me;
Lest by base denial,
I depart from Thee;
When Thou see'st me waver,
With a look recall,
Nor for fear or favor
Suffer me to fall.
2 Should Thy mercy send me
Sorrow, toil, and woe;
Or should pain attend me
On my path below;
Grant that I may never
Fail Thy hand to see;
Grant that I may ever
Cast my care on Thee.
3 When my last hour cometh,
Fraught with strife and pain,
When my dust returneth
To the dust again;
On Thy truth relying
Through that mortal strife,
Jesus, take me, dying,
To eternal life.
Amen. Topics: Care; Consolation; Temptation; Trials Prayer in; Trust In Christ Languages: English Tune Title: PAROLE
