Evangelical Lutheran hymnal ‎#410a

410a. Help, Savior! help in fear and need

1 Help, Savior! help in fear and need,
Have mercy, to my prayers give heed!
I know Thou lov'st me still as Thine,
Though 'gainst me the world and hell combine.

2 I trust in Thee, whom I adore;
If I have Thee, what need I more?
And, O Lord Jesus, Thou art mine:
And blest am I that I am Thine!

3 This sweet assurance bids my heart
Abide Thy time, till clouds shall part;
To Thee I'll trust me wholly then,
And cry: Lord, help me! Yea, Amen.
