Text: | Yield not to Temptation |
Tune: | [Yield not to temptation] |
Composer: | H. R. Palmer. By per. |
1 Yield not to temptation,
For yielding is sin,
Each victr'y will help you
some other to win;
Fight manfully onward,
Dark passions subdue,
Look ever to Jesus,
He'll carry you through.
Chorus:
Ask the Saviour to help you,
Comfort, strengthen, and keep you,
He is willing to aid you,
He will carry you through.
2 Shun evil companions,
Bad language disdain,
God’s name hold in rev’rence,
nor take it in vain;
Be thoughtful and earnest,
Kindhearted and true,
Look ever to Jesus,
He will carry you through. [Chorus]
3 To him that o’ercometh,
God giveth a crown,
Thro' faith we will conquer,
though often cast down;
He who is our Saviour,
Our strength will renew,
Look ever to Jesus,
He'll carry you through. [Chorus]
