Let me with light and truth be blessed

Verse 1

Let me with light and truth be bless’d; Be these my guides to lead the way, Till on Thy holy hill I rest, And in Thy sacred temple pray.

Verse 2

Then will I there fresh altars raise To God, who is my only joy; And well-tuned harps, with songs of praise, Shall all my grateful hours employ.

Verse 3

Why then cast down, my soul? and why So much oppress’d with anxious care? On God, thy God, for aid rely, Who will thy ruin’d state repair.
