1. My will is weak, my strength is frail,
  And all my hope is nearly gone;
  I can but trust Thy working true
  To gently hold and lead me on.
2. I've tried my best, but still have failed,
  E'en as before I've failed and erred;
  Thy patience is my only trust
  To hold and keep me to Thy word.
3. When'er my heart is lifted up,
  How very near I am to fall;
  I dare not do, I dare not think,
  I need thyself in great or small.
4. Thou art my Savior, strength and stay,
  O Lord, I come to seek Thy face;
  Though I'm the weakest of the weak,
  My strength is nothing but Thy grace.
