Hymn 250
YIELD NOT TO TEMPTATION
Verse 1
Yield not to temptation, For yielding is sin,
Each victory will help you, Some other to win.
Fight manfully onward, Dark passions subdue,
Look ever to Jesus, He’ll carry you through.
Each victory will help you, Some other to win.

Comfort, strengthen, and keep you;
He is willing to aid you,
He will carry you through.
Comfort, strengthen, and keep you;
He is willing to aid you,
He will carry you through.

Shun evil companions, Bad language disdain,
God’s name hold in reverence, Nor take it in vain.
Be thoughtful and earnest, Kind-hearted and true,
Look ever to Jesus, He’ll carry you through.

. To him that o’er cometh, God giveth a crown,
Thro’ faith we shall conquer,
Tho’ often cast down
He who is our Saviour, Our strength will renew,
Look ever to Jesus, He’ll carry you through.
Thro’ faith we shall conquer,
Tho’ often cast down
He who is our Saviour, Our strength will renew,
Look ever to Jesus, He’ll carry you through.

He will carry you through.
