1 Lord Jesus Christ,
My Savior blest,
My Hope and my Salvation!
I trust in Thee,
Deliver me
From misery;
Thy word's my consolation.
2 As Thou dost will,
Lead Thou me still,
That I may truly serve Thee;
My God, I pray.
Teach me Thy way,
To my last day
In Thy true faith preserve me.
3 Most heartily
I trust in Thee,
Thy mercy fails me never.
Dear Lord, abide
My Helper tried,
Thou crucified,
From evil keep me ever.
4 Now henceforth must
I put my trust
In Thee, O dearest Savior;
Thy comfort choice,
Thy word and voice
My heart rejoice,
Despite my ill behavior.
5 When sorrows rise,
My refuge lies
In Thy compassion tender;
Within Thine arm
Can naught alarm;
Keep me from harm,
Be Thou my strong Defender.
6 I have Thy Word,
Christ Jesus, Lord;
Thou never wilt forsake me;
This will I plead
In time of need;
O help me speed,
When troubles overtake me!
7 Grant, Lord, we pray,
Thy grace each day,
That we Thy Law revering,
May live with Thee,
And happy be
Eternally,
Before Thy throne appearing.
