each victory will help you some other to win;
fight steadily onward, dark passions subdue,
look ever to Jesus, He will carry you through.
Refrain:
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 reverence, nor take it in vain;
be thoughtful and earnest, kind-hearted and true,
look ever to Jesus, He will carry you through. [Refrain]
3 To all the victorious, God's gift is a crown.
Through faith we shall conquer, though often cast down;
He who is our Saviour our strength will renew,
look ever to Jesus, He will carry you through. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: FORTITUDE
Ask the Saviour to help you
