TEACH ME, O LORD, THY HOLY WAY

Teach me, O Lord, thy holy way

And give me an obedient mind;

That in thy service I may find

My soul's delight from day to day.


Guide me, O Saviour, with thy hand,

And so control my thoughts and deeds,

That I may tread the path which leads

Right onward to the blessed land.


Help me, O Saviour, here to trace

The sacred footsteps thou hast trod;

And, meekly walking with my God,

To grow in goodness, truth, and grace.


Guard me, O Lord, that I may ne'er

Forsake the right, or do the wrong:

Against temptation make me strong,

And round me spread thy shelt'ring care.


Bless me in ev'ry task, O Lord,

Begun, continued, done for thee:

Fulfil thy perfect work in me;

And thine abounding grace afford.
