My Lord and Saviour govern me

Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #CCVII (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 My Lord and Saviour govern me, In all what e'er I do; In whom should I depend, but thee, While I am here below. 2 By thee, my soul was dearly bought, And thus became thy claim. In all my life I humbly ought, To prove that such I am. 3 But unto thee, O Lord, 'tis known, In vain I strive to hide; The many evils I have done, Since I set thee aside. 4 All my engagements were in vain, My solemn vows are broke, And I became enslav'd again, To bear the tempter's yoke. 5 To whom or whither can I flee, To be again restor'd; Who can afford such grace to me, But Jesus, thou my Lord. 6 Thy promises are my recourse, To have my strength renew'd; To conquer sin and Satan's force, I trust to thee my God.
