Hymn Text
1 In the hour of trial, Jesus, plead for me,
Lest by base denial I depart from thee.
When thou see’st me waver, With a look recall;
Nor from fear or favor Suffer me to fall.
2 With forbidden pleasures Should this vain world charm,
Or its sordid treasures Spread to work me harm,
Bring to my remembrance Sad Gethsemane,
Or, in darker semblance, Cross-crowned Calvary.
3 Should thy mercy send me Sorrow, toil, and woe,
Or should pain attend me On my path below,
Grant that I may never Fail thy hand to see;
Grant that I may ever Cast my care on thee.
