In Doubt and Temptation

Representative Text

my soul with thy counsel through life thou wilt guide,
and afterward make me in glory abide.

My God, I will extol thee
and ever bless thy name;
each day will I give thanks to thee
and all thy praise proclaim.

2 In glory thou only my portion shalt be,

my flesh and heart falter, but God is my stay,

3 All they that forsake thee must perish and die,
but near to my Savior most blessed am I;
I make thee my refuge, my Lord and my God;
thy grace and thy glory I publish abroad. [Refrain]
