Whene’er you meet with troubles and trials on your way,
Then cast your cares on Jesus and don’t forget to pray.
Gird on the gospel armor of faith and hope and love,
And when the combat’s ended He’ll carry you above.
O do not be discouraged for Jesus is your friend,
And if you lack for knowledge, he’ll not refuse to lend.
Neither will he upbraid you, though often you request,
He’ll give you grace to conquer and take you home to rest.
And when the last loud trumpet shall rend the vaulted skies,
And bid th’ entombed millions from their cold beds arise;
