<p>This song was an inspiration. I was at work on the dry subject of ‘Theory,’ when the complete idea flashed upon me, and I laid aside the theoretical work and hurriedly penned both words and music as fast as I could write them. I submitted them to the criticism of a friend afterward, and some changes were made in the third stanza, but the first two are exactly as they came to meI am reverently thankful it has been a power for good.</p>

|
|
<p>Yield not to temptation, for yielding is sin;<br>
|
|
Each victory will help you some other to win;<br>
|
|
Fight manfully onward, dark passions subdue,<br>
|
|
Look ever to Jesus, He’ll carry you through.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Ask the Savior to help you,<br>
|
|
Comfort, strengthen and keep you;<br>
|
|
He is willing to aid you,<br>
|
|
He will carry you through.</p>
|
|
<p>Shun evil companions, bad language disdain,<br>
|
|
God’s Name hold in reverence, nor take it in vain;<br>
|
|
Be thoughtful and earnest, kindhearted and true,<br>
|
|
Look ever to Jesus, He’ll carry you through.</p>
|
|
<p class="refrain">Refrain</p>
|
|
<p>To him that o’ercometh, God giveth a crown;<br>
|
|
Through faith we shall conquer, though often cast down;<br>
|
|
He Who is our Savior our strength will renew;<br>
|
|
Look ever to Jesus, He’ll carry you through.</p>
