Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 385 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, my strength, my hope,
On thee I cast my care,
With humble confidence look up,
And know thou hear'st my prayer.
2 I want a sober mind,
A self-renouncing will,
That tramples down and casts behind
The baits of pleasing ill;
3 A soul inured to pain,
To hardship, grief, and loss;
Bold to take up, firm to sustain
The consecrated cross.
4 I want a godly fear,
A quick, discerning eye,
That looks to thee when sin is near,
And sees the tempter fly;
5 A spirit still prepared,
And armed with jealous care,
Forever standing on its guard,
And watching unto prayer. Topics: The Christian Godly Life Used With Tune: GREENWOOD
