Succor of the tempt­ed
Hear me when I call;
Turn to me in mer­cy,
At Thy feet I fall;
Help me bear life’s cross­es,
All my sins for­give,
Like my Lord and Mas­ter,
Daily may I live.

Give me strength, I pray Thee,
To re­sist the ill,
When my cour­age fails me,
Be my com­fort still;
Thou hast known temp­ta­tion,
Yet with­out a sin;
By Thy strength I’ll con­quer,
By Thy grace I’ll win.

In my dark­est tri­als,
Be my con­stant friend,
Lead me ev­ery mo­ment,
To my jour­ney’s end;
When the waves of Jor­dan
Fiercely round me roll,
In Thine arms of mer­cy,
Bear my faint­ing soul.
