125. O Jesus, When My Heart Is Sad

1 O Jesus, when my heart is sad,
Thy grace can cheer and make me glad;
Thy presence can disperse my gloom,
Thy love my soul with light illume.

2 Thou art my comfort and my stay,
My joy, my life, my truth, my way;
My trusting soul will cling to thee
In time and in eternity.

3 Abide with me, Redeemer mine,
And seal me wholly, wholly thine,
And lead me, by thy loving hand,
Into the golden glory-land.
