Tune: Albano
('Once, only once, and once for all')
********
Lord, help me trust, help me believe
And your words true receive
Holding to each your promises
That I your ways not miss
Help me to will what you do will
My heart, mind, comfort, still
To go your way, though I may choose
It not, your grace endues
For you endue us, that we may
Continue, watch and pray
Working through needed discipline
You cleanse our souls from sin
Though time of trial, heaviness
Your intent still to bless
To form the image of your Son
In us, the perfect One
And then when season joyful here
Does come to us, appear
It sure shall be profitable
That we did heed your call
