In the Hour of Trial

Author: James Montgomery (1771-1854) Hymnal: SDAH1985 #491 (1985) Meter: 6.5.6.5 D First Line: In the hour of trial, Jesus, plead for me Lyrics: 1 In the hour of trial, Jesus, plead for me, Lest by base denial I depart from Thee; When Thou see’st me waver, with a look recall, Nor, for fear or favor, suffer me to fall. 2 With forbidden pleasures would this vain world charm; Or its sordid treasures spread to work me harm; Bring to my remembrance sad Gethsemane, Or, in darker semblance, cross-crowned Calvary. 3 Should Thy mercy send me sorrow, toil, and woe, Or should pain attend me on my path below, Grant that I may never fail Thy hand to see; Grant that I may ever cast my care on Thee.

Thou dost not wait till human speech Thy gifts divine implore; Our dreams, our aims, our work, our lives Are prayers Thou lovest more. 2 Thou hearest these, the good and ill, Deep buried in each breast; The secret thought, the hidden plan, Wrought out our unexpressed. O cleanse our prayers from human dross, Attune our lives to Thee, Until we labor for those gifts We ask on bended knee. 3 Our best is but Thyself in us, Our highest thought Thy will; To hear Thy voice we need but love, And listen, and be still. We would not bend Thy will to ours, But blend our wills to Thine; Not beat with cries on heaven's doors, But live Thy life divine. 4 Thou seekest us in love and truth More than our minds seek Thee; Through open gates Thy power flows in Like flood tides from the sea. No more we seek Thee from afar, Nor ask Thee for a sign, Content to pray in life and love And toil, till all are Thine. Topics: Christan Life Meditation and Prayer Tune Title: HALIFAX

As to each newborn morning A fresh and solemn splendor still is given, So does this blessed consciousness, awaking, Breathe each day nearness unto Thee and heaven. 4 So shall it be at last, in that bright morning, When the soul waketh and life’s shadows flee; O in that hour, fairer than daylight dawning, Shall rise the glorious thought, I am with Thee.

We should never be discouraged Take it to the Lord in prayer. Can we find a friend so faithful Who will all our sorrows share? Jesus knows our every weakness Take it to the Lord in prayer. 3 Are we weak and heavy laden, Cumbered with a load of care? Precious Savior, still our refuge Take it to the Lord in prayer.

By looking to Jesus, Like Him thou shalt be; Thy friends in thy conduct His likeness shall see. 3 Take time to be holy, Let Him be thy guide, And run not before Him, Whatever betide. In joy or in sorrow, Still follow the Lord, And, looking to Jesus, Atill trust in His word. 4 Take time to be holy, Be calm in thy soul, Each thought and each motive Beneath His control. Thus led by His spirit To fountains of love, Thou soon shalt be fitted For service above. Topics: Christan Life Meditation and Prayer Scripture: 1 Peter 1:16 Tune Title: HOLINESS (Stebbins)
