Increase my feeble faith, Which You alone have wrought. O be my strength and pow'r-- O God, forsake me not! 3 O God, forsake me not! Lord, hear my supplication! In ev'ry evil hour Help me resist temptation; And when the prince of hell My conscience seeks to blot, Be then not far from me-- O God, forsake me not! 4 O God, forsake me not! Lord, I am Yours forever. O keep me strong in faith That I may leave You never. Grant me a blessed end When my good fight is fought; Help me in life and death-- O God, forsake me not!

For there, in faith adored, We find Thy presence nearer; We love the word of life, The word that tells of peace, Of comfort in the strife, Of joys that never cease. 3 We love to sing below For mercies freely given; But most we long to know The triumph song of heaven. Lord Jesus, give us grace On earth to love Thee more, In heaven to see Thy face, And with Thy saints adore. Topics: The Church Used With Tune: [We love the place, O God]

My Jesus, as Thou wilt!

Author: Jane Borthwick; Benjamin Schmolk, d. 1737 Appears in 617 hymnals Lyrics: 1 My Jesus, as Thou wilt! O may Thy will be mine! Into Thy hand of love I would my all resign. Through sorrow or through joy Conduct me as Thine own, And help me still to say, My Lord, Thy will be done! 2 My Jesus, as Thou wilt! If needy here and poor, Give me Thy people's bread, Their portion rich and sure. The manna of Thy word Let my soul feed upon; And if all else should fail, My Lord, Thy will be done! 3 My Jesus, as Thou wilt! Though seen through many a tear, Let not my star of hope Grow dim or disappear: Since Thou on earth hast wept And sorrowed oft alone, If I must weep with Thee, My Lord, Thy will be done! 4 My Jesus, as Thou wilt! When death itself draws nigh, To Thy dear wounded side I would for refuge fly. Leaning on Thee, to go Where Thou before hast gone: The rest as Thou shalt please: My Lord, thy will be done! 5 My Jesus, as Thou wilt! All shall be well for me: Each changing future scene I gladly trust with Thee. Thus to my home above I travel calmly on, And sing, in life or death, My Lord, Thy will be done!
