That steadfast faith Divine

Verse 1
That stedfast faith divine,
Jesus, on me bestow,
T’ assure this trembling heart of mine,
Thou wilt not let me go;
In every time of need
Thou wilt my soul defend,
And save from every evil deed,
’Till all my conflicts end.

Verse 2
With me, most gracious Lord,
In my temptation stay,
And by thy comfortable word
Preserve unto that day,
When thou, our King, shalt come
With all thine angels down,
And take thy suffering servants home,
And with thy glory crown.
