[If few that find the narrow way]

If few that find the narrow way,
Fewer that enter'd in appear;
But fewer still the souls that stay,
That walk, hold on, and persevere,
And reach their Father's house above,
And gain the life of ripest love.
The way I through Thy grace have found,
Jesus, and shall herein remain:
But let Thy grace yet more abound,
And through Thy after-grief and pain
From step to step conduct me on,
To live a partner of Thy throne.
