Son of the living God! thy hands no human toil disdained; an earthly father's wise commands thy daily work ordained.
Verse 2
Son of the carpenter, receive this humble work of mine; worth to my meqanest labor give, by joining it to thine.
Verse 3
End of my ev'ry action thou, in all things thee I see; accept my hallowed labor now; I do it unto thee.
Verse 4
Thy bright example I pursue, to thee in all things rise; may all I think, or speak, or do be one great sacrifice.

Careless through outward cares I go, from all distraction free; my hands are but engaged below, my heart is still with thee.
