693. O God, my strength, my hope

1 O God, my strength, my hope,
On thee I cast my care,
With humble confidence look up,
And know thou hearest prayer.

2 Oh, for a godly fear,
A quick-discerning eye,
That looks to thee when sin is near,
And sees the tempter fly!

3 A spirit still prepared,
And armed with jealous care,
For ever standing on its guard,
And watching unto prayer!

4 Lord, let me still abide,
Nor from my hope remove,
Till thou my patient spirit guide
To better worlds above.
