| 1. Be Thou my Guardian
and my Guide;
And hear me when I call;
Let not my slippery footsteps slide,
And hold me lest I fall.
2. The world, the flesh,
and Satan dwell
Around the path I tread;
O, save me from the snares of hell,
Thou Quickener of the dead.
3. And if I tempted am to sin,
And outward things are strong,
Do Thou, O Lord, keep watch within,
And save my soul from wrong.
4. Still let me ever watch and pray,
And feel that I am frail;
that if the tempter cross my way,
Yet he may not prevail.
