Author: Horatio R. Palmer, 1834-1907 Hymnal: Worship and Service Hymnal #510 (1957) Refrain First Line: Ask the Saviour to help you Lyrics: 1 Yield not to temptation,
For yielding is sin,
Each vict’ry will help you
Some other to win;
Fight manfully onward,
Dark passions subdue,
Look ever to Jesus,
He will carry you through.
Refrain:
Ask the Savior to help you,
Comfort, strengthen, and keep you,
He is willing to aid you,
He will carry you through.
2 Shun evil companions,
Bad language disdain,
God’s name hold in rev’rence,
Nor take it in vain;
Be thoughtful and earnest,
Kindhearted and true,
Look ever to Jesus,
He will carry you through. (Refrain)
3 To him that o’ercometh
God giveth a crown,
Thro' faith we will conquer,
Though often cast down;
He, who is our Saviour,
Our strength will renew,
Look ever to Jesus,
He will carry you through. (Refrain) Topics: Temperance; Youth Hymns Languages: English Tune Title: [Yield not to temptation]
