17. God, Help Me to Do Right

1 Tho’ burdens may bend me, tho’ troubles oppress,
Tho’ sin oft my soul may affright,
Oh, help me, blest Savior, thy name to confess,
God, help me to do right.

Refrain:
God, help me to do right!
God, help me to do right!
By thy power divine, make my will wholly thine,
God, help me to do right.

2 Whenever from thee I am tempted to stray,
And wander in sin’s darkest night,
Ne’er leave nor forsake me, dear Savior, I pray,
God, help me to do right. [Refrain]

3 Help me to be faithful in all that I do,
Upheld by the pow’r of thy might;
To thee I would ever be loyal and true,
God, help me to do right. [Refrain]
