The Lord Hath Helped Me Hitherto

The Lord hath helped me hi­ther­to

By His sur­pass­ing fa­vor;

His mer­cies ev­ery morn were new

His kind­ness did not wa­ver.

God hi­ther­to hath been my guide

Hath plea­sures hi­ther­to sup­plied

And hi­ther­to hath helped me.

I praise and thank Thee

Lord

my God

For Thine abun­dant bless­ing

Which here­to­fore Thou hast be­stowed

And I am still pos­sess­ing.

Inscribe this on my me­mo­ry:

The Lord hath done great things for me

And gra­cious­ly hath helped me.

Help me hence­forth

O God of grace

Help me on each oc­ca­sion

Help me in each and ev­ery place

Help me through Je­sus’ pass­ion;

Help me in life and death

O God

Help me through Je­sus’ dy­ing blood;

Help me as Thou hast helped me!
