by Unknown

To save, through Thee, our souls alive!

When the pampered flesh is strong,

When the strife is fierce and long;

When our wakening thoughts begin

First to loathe their cherished sin,

And our weary spirits fail,

And our aching brows are pale,

Oh, then have mercy, Lord!

H. H. Milman.
