Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: The Hymnal, Revised and Enlarged, as adopted by the General Convention of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America in the year of our Lord 1892 #649 (1894) Lyrics: 1 Lord, forever at Thy side,
Let my place and portion be;
Strip me of the robe of pride,
Clothe me with humility.
2 Meekly may my soul receive,
All Thy Spirit hath revealed,
Thou hast spoken; I believe,
Though the oracle be sealed.
3 Humble as a little child,
Weanèd from the mother's breast,
By no subtleties beguiled,
On Thy faithful word I rest.
4 Israel now and evermore,
In the Lord Jehovah trust;
Him, in all His ways, adore,
Wise, and wonderful, and just.
Amen.
