The Lord hath helped me hitherto, by His surpassing favor

Verse 1

The Lord hath helped me hitherto By His surpassing favor; His mercies ev'ry morn were new, His kindness did not waver. God hitherto hath been my Guide, Hath pleasures hitherto supplied, And hitherto hath helped me.

Verse 2

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.

Verse 3

Help me henceforth, O God of grace, Help me on each occasion, Help me in each and ev'ry 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.
