O Thou, Who hast at Thy command
The hearts of all men in Thy hand,
Our wayward, erring hearts incline
To have no other will but Thine.
Our wishes, our desires, control;
Mould every purpose of the soul;
O’er all may we victorious prove
That stands between us and Thy love.
Thrice blest will all our blessings be,
When we can look through them to Thee;
When each glad heart its tribute pays
Of love and gratitude and praise.
And while we to Thy glory live,
May we to Thee all glory give,
Until the final summons come,
That calls Thy willing servants home.
---Alternative verses---
Our wishes, our desires, control;
Mould every purpose of the soul;
O’er all may we victorious be
That stands between ourselves and thee.
Thrice blest will all our blessings prove,
When through them all we see thy love;
When each glad heart its tribute pays
Of humble gratitude and praise.
And while we to Thy glory live,
May we to Thee all glory give,
Until the joyful summons come,
That calls Thy willing servants home.
