Verse 1

Teach me, O teach me, Lord, Thy way; That, to my life's remotest day, By thine unerring precepts led, My feet Thy heavenly paths may tread.

Informed by Thee, with sacred awe My heart shall meditate Thy law; And, with celestial wisdom filled, To Thee its full obedience yield.

O turn from vanity my eye; To me Thy quickening strength supply; And with Thy promised mercy cheer A heart devoted to Thy fear.
