I should live to Thee alone;

Year by year, Thy hand hath brought me

On through dangers oft unknown.

When I wandered, Thou hast found me;

When I doubted, sent me light;

Still Thine arm has been around me,

All my paths were in Thy sight.

2 In the world will foes assail me,

Craftier, stronger far than I;

And the strife may never fail me,
