Thou hast borne our sin and shame; By Thy merits we find favour; Life is given through Thy Name. [Verse 2] Jesus, hail! enthroned in glory, There for ever to abide; All the heavenly host adore Thee, Seated at Thy Father's side. There for sinners Thou art pleading. There Thou dost our place prepare. Ever for us interceding, Till in glory we appear. [Verse 3] Worship, honour, power, and blessing Christ is worthy to receive; Loudest praises, without ceasing, Meet it is for us 'to give.

[Verse 2] Help me, O Lord, to 'keep my pledge unbroken! Guard Thou my ways, my thoughts, my tongue, my heart; Help me to trust the word which Thou hast spoken. That from Thy paths my feet may ne'er [ never ] depart. [Verse 3] Help me, O Lord! My strength is only weakness, Thine, Thine the power by which alone I live; Help me each day to bear the cross with meekness. Till Thou at last the promised crown shalt give.
