CH1941, Hymn #251

Verse 1
I ask not, Lord, for less to bear
Here in the narrow way,
But that I may thy blessing share
In all I do or say,
In all I do or say.

Verse 2
Through whatsoe'er my path shall lie,
With patience may I run;
With filial trust my heart reply,
"Thy will, O God, be done.
Thy will, O God, be done."

Verse 3
With Thee to lead, I will not fear
In scenes with dangers rife,
While still thy cheering voice I hear,
"I am the way, the life,
I am the way, the life".

Verse 4
Thou art the refuge of my soul,
My hope when comforts flee,
My strength while life's rough billows roll,
My joy eternally,
My joy eternally.

Verse 5
Then help me to improve with care,
These precious moments given;
For they a faithful record bear,
Of good or ill, to heaven,
Of good or ill, to heaven.

Verse 6
And in Thine arms of love enfold
Me from the tempter's snare;
And in the book of life enrolled,
Be my name written there,
Be my name written there.
