In The Hour Of Trial Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDA EEAA DDFFIn the hour of trial Jesus plead for me | A |
Lest by base denial I depart from Thee | A |
When Thou seest me waver with a look recall | B |
Nor for fear or favor suffer me to fall | B |
- | |
With forbidden pleasures would this vain world charm | C |
Or its sordid treasures spread to work me harm | C |
Bring to my remembrance sad Gethsemane | D |
Or in darker semblance cross crowned Calvary | A |
- | |
Should Thy mercy send me sorrow toil and woe | E |
Or should pain attend me on my path below | E |
Grant that I may never fail Thy hand to see | A |
Grant that I may ever cast my care on Thee | A |
- | |
When my last hour cometh fraught with strife and pain | D |
When my dust returneth to the dust again | D |
On Thy truth relying through that mortal strife | F |
Jesus take me dying to eternal life | F |
