HYMN 128.

When cares of life around me press,
And worldly thoughts invade,
Thou, Lord, wilt succour my distress,
And grant Thy Spirit's aid.

When sin, the world, and Satan try
To snare and fetter me,
Thou wilt Thy heav'nly grace supply,
And set Thy servant free.

Guarded by Thee, my dying day
Shall need no help beside!
Thy rod and staff shall be my stay,
Thy light shall be my guide.
