I heard this old song from my childhood on the radio very early--I actually woke to it. The song has stuck in my mind all day and i just feel moved and inspired to share it with everyone. Even if you are not religious I am sure you will still experience the pathos and beauty of this fine hymn.

Horatio R, palmer (1868)

Yield not to temptation, for yielding is sin;
Each vict’ry will help you some other to win;
Fight manfully onward, dark passions subdue;
Look ever to Jesus, He’ll carry you through.
- Refrain:
  Ask the Savior to help you,
  Comfort, strengthen, and keep you;
  He is willing to aid you,
  He will carry you through.
Shun evil companions, bad language disdain,
God’s name hold in rev’rence, nor take it in vain;
Be thoughtful and earnest, kindhearted and true;
Look ever to Jesus, He’ll carry you through.
To him that o’ercometh, God giveth a crown,
Through faith we will conquer, though often cast down;
He who is our Savior, our strength will renew;
Look ever to Jesus, He’ll carry you through.

Entry #10

Amen! If He brings you to it, He'll get you through it.
