A little pilgrim on life’s way,
Bearing his cross from day to day,
When faint and weary, used to say,
“Jesus, my Saviour!”
If Satan tempted him aside,
He never on himself relied,
But grasped the shield of faith and cried,
“Jesus, my Saviour!”
And looking up from what he feared,
Though far away his rest appeared,
Oh, how the thought his spirit cheered,
“Jesus, my Saviour!”
Thus, Lord, direct my youthful way,
Thyself to love, Thy law obey;
Then shall I praise through endless day
“Jesus, my Saviour!”
