DESIRE OF HOLINESS




Teach me, O teach me, Lord, thy way;
So to my life’s remotest day,
By the unerring precepts led,
My willing feet its 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.


Give me to know thy words aright,
Thy words, my soul’s supreme delight;
That, purged from thirst of gold, my mind
In them its better wealth may find.


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