Verse 1
Lord, if Thou let the sinner go,
My old tyrannizing foe
Will re-usurp the power,
Unless Thou every moment stay,
I sink insensibly away,
I fall to rise no more.
Verse 2
But if by thy sufficient grace
Thou support me in thy ways,
My footsteps shall not slide;
I shall my bosom-sin eschew,
And steadily thro’ life pursue
Mine everlasting Guide.
