1. Thou gavest gave once a promise Lord which often consoles console me. Thou gavest once a promise Lord: "Child I'll abide with thee." O Lord in love and wisdom great, who in my heart can see, will find there faith and hope and tears, amid great love for Thee.
2. In often recurring prayer I bring an earnest plea to Thee: "Let me in faith, obedience prove a worthy child to be." And give me strength and courage Lord to stand for all to see how wondrous is that promise given: "Child I'll abide with thee."
