Help me then in every tribulation
                                        
                                        So to trust Thy promises, O Lord,
                                        
                                        That I lose not faith’s sweet consolation
                                        
                                        Offered me within Thy holy Word.
                                        
                                        Help me, Lord, when toil and trouble meeting,
                                        
                                        E’er to take, as from a father’s hand,
                                        
                                        One by one, the days, the moments fleeting,
                                        
                                        Till I reach the promised land.
