God of almighty love,
By whose sufficient grace
I lift my heart to things above,
And humbly seek thy face:
Through Jesus Christ the just
My faint desires receive,
And let me in thy goodness trust,
And to thy glory live.
Whate’er I say or do,
Thy glory be my aim;
My offerings all be offered through
The ever-blessèd name.
Jesus, my single eye
Be fixed on thee alone:
Thy name be praised on earth, on high,
Thy will by all be done.
Spirit of faith, inspire
My consecrated heart;
Fill me with pure, celestial fire,
With all thou hast and art.
My feeble mind transform,
And, perfectly renewed,
Into a saint exalt a worm,
A worm exalt to God!
