EN 5807 Jesus, My Strength, My Hope

1John.5.14

Versi Version 1

1

Jesus, my Strength, my Hope,

On Thee I cast my care,

With humble confidence look up,

And know Thou hear’st my prayer.

Give me on Thee to wait

Till I can all things do;

On Thee, almighty to create,

Almighty to renew.

2

I want a sober mind,

A self-renouncing will,

That tramples down and casts behind

The baits of pleasing ill;

A soul inured to pain,

To hardship, grief, and loss,

Bold to take up, firm to sustain

The consecrated cross.

3

I want a godly fear,

A quick discerning eye

That looks to Thee when sin is near

And sees the tempter fly;

A spirit still prepared

And armed with jealous care,

Forever standing on its guard

And watching unto prayer.

4

I want a heart to pray,

To pray and never cease,

Never to murmur at Thy stay,

Or wish my sufferings less.

This blessing, above all,

Always to pray, I want,

Out of the deep on Thee to call,

And never, never faint.

5

I want a true regard,

A single, steady aim,

Unmoved by threat’ning or reward

To Thee and Thy great Name.

A jealous, just concern

For Thine immortal praise;

A pure desire that all may learn

And glorify Thy grace.

6

I rest upon Thy Word;

The promise is for me;

My comfort and salvation, Lord,

Shall surely come from Thee.

But let me still abide,

Nor from my hope remove,

Till Thou my patient spirit guide

Into Thy perfect love.

7

I want with all my heart

Thy pleasure to fulfill,

To know myself, and what Thou art,

And what Thy perfect will.

I want I know not what,

I want my wants to see,

I want—alas! what want I not,

When Thou art not in me?
