Lyrics
Verse 1
O, my precious, loving Savior, Lend to me a (Lend to me) helping hand; (a helping hand;) May I ever do my duty, Help me, Lord, (Help me, Lord,) to firmly stand.
Verse 2
Leave me never, O, dear Master, For without (For without) Thee I would stray; (I would stray;) I’m so glad to know my Savior Will go with (Will go with) me all the way.
Verse 3
Time is short and days are fleeting And I have (And I have) not long to stay, (not long to stay,) But I’ll do my best for Jesus As I go (As I go) along life’s way.
Verse 4
In this world my stay is transient, Death’s dark vale (Death’s dark vale) I soon must tread; (I soon must tread;) With my Savior close beside me, Naught have I (Naught have I) to fear or dread.
Chorus
Stay beside me O, my blessed Savior, stay beside me, Help me, Lord, to firmly stand; When my toil and strife is ended, Lead me to the promised land. (Stay beside me blessed Savior, Help me, Lord, to firmly stand; When my toil and strife is ended, Lead me to) (When my toil and strife is ended,)
