He Was Afflicted.

JESUS, on earth Thou, too, didst feel Temptation's fearful power; Thou Friend of sinners, help me now, In this my trying hour.

Jesus, Thy friends did fail Thee, too, In time of direst need; O, now the strongest human trust Is but a shaking reed.

Reach out Thy tender, loving hand To save my sinking soul; Show Thy loved face and speak the word To make me strong and whole.

Give me but Thee; all else I lose; Let me Thyself but see. O, let me in Thy presence stand, My heart find rest in Thee. —Alice B. Wickles.
