33. O help us, Lord, each hour of need
C.M.
St. Peter:
Alexander R. Reinagle, 1836
Henry H. Milman, 1827
O help us, Lord, each hour of need Thy heavenly succor give: Help us in thought, in word, and deed, Each hour on earth we live! | O help us, when our spirits cry With contrite anguish sore; And when our hearts are cold and dry, O help us, Lord, the more! | O help us through the prayer of faith More firmly to believe! For still the more the servant hath, The more shall he receive. | O help us, Savior, from on high: We have no help but thee. O help us so to live and die As thine in heaven to be! | |
