195. Yield not to Temptation

1 Yield not to temptation,
For yielding is sin,
Each victr'y will help you some other to win;
Fight manfully onward,
Dark passions subdue,
Look ever to Jesus,
He'll carry you through.

Chorus:
Ask the Saviour to help you,
Comfort, strengthen, and keep you,
He is willing to aid you,
He will carry you through.

2 Shun evil companions,
Bad language disdain,
God's name hold in rev'rence, nor take it in vain;
Be thoughtful and earnest,
Kind-hearted and true,
Look ever to Jesus,
He'll carry you through. [Chorus]

3 To him that o'ercometh
God giveth a crown,
Thro' faith we will conquer, though often cast down;
He who is our Saviour,
Our strength will renew,
Look ever to Jesus,
He'll carry you through. [Chorus]
