Author: Frederic A. Graves Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #11653 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Hymnal Title: The Cyber Hymnal First Line: Lord, clasp my faltering hand in Thine Lyrics: 1 Lord, clasp my faltering hand in Thine; Too weak I am to walk alone; My path, dear Lord, I would not choose, But ever say, "Thy will be done." 2 Tempted at times, to trust in self, And in this self, feel brave and strong; Help, in my weakness, Thee to trust, To do the right, and shun the wrong. 3 I’ll trust in Thee each day, and hour, As through this sinful world I go; I’ll lean upon Thine arm of power, And then defeat I ne’er shall know. 4 If I in Thee shall fall asleep, Or in the clouds shall see Thee come, Then, where there’ll be no cause to weep, Greet me, my Savior, in that home.
