HYMN IN THE HOUR OF TRIAL
July 16 Ecclesiastes ch 6-8
HYMN IN THE HOUR OF TRIAL
When they deliver you over, do not be anxious how you are to speak or what you are to say, for what you are to say will be given to you in that hour. For it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.
Matthew 10:19-20 ESV
In the hour of trial,
1. In the hour of trial, Jesus, plead for me,
Lest by base denial I depart from Thee.
When Thou seest me waver, with a look recall,
Nor for fear or favor suffer me to fall.
2. With forbidden pleasures would this vain world charm,
Or its sordid treasures spread to work me harm,
Bring to my remembrance sad Gethsemane,
Or, in darker semblance, cross-crowned Calvary.
3. Should Thy mercy send me sorrow, toil and woe,
Or should pain attend me on my path below,
Grant that I may never fail Thy hand to see;
Grant that I may ever cast my care on Thee.
4. When my last hour cometh, fraught with strife and pain,
When my dust returneth to the dust again,
On Thy truth relying, through that mortal strife,
Jesus, take me, dying, to eternal life. Amen

Jesu, nigba’ danwo
1. Jesu, nigba’ danwo, Gbadura fun mi;
K’emi ma ba se O, Ki nsi sako lo:
’Gba mba nsiyemeji, K’o bojuwo mi;
K’eru tab’ isaju, Ma mu mi subu.
2. B’aiye ba si nfa mi, Pelu adun re;
T’ohun ’sura aiye Fe han mi l’emo:
Jo mu Getsemane Wa s’ iranti mi,
Tabi irora Re, L’oke Kalfari.
3. B’o bap on mi l’oju, Ninu ife Re;
Da ibukun Re le, Ori ebo na:
Ki nf’ara mi fun O, Lori pepe Re;
B’ara ko ago na, Igbagbo y’o mu.
4. ’Gba mo ban re boji, Sinu ekuru;
T’ ogo orun si nko, L’eti bebe na;
Ngo gbekel’ oto Re, N’ ijakadi ’ku,
Oluwa, gb’emi mi, S’iye ailopin. Amin.
