Feeble, helpless, how shall I
Learn to live and learn to die?
Who, O God, my guide shall be?
Who shall lead thy child to Thee?
Blessed Father, gracious One,
Thou hast sent thy holy Son;
He will give the light I need,
Through this world, uncertain, dim,
Let me ever learn of him;
From his precepts wisdom draw,
Make his life my solemn law.
Thus in deed, and thought, and word,
Led by Jesus Christ the Lord,
In my weakness, thus shall I
Learn to live and learn to die:
Learn to live in peace and love,
Like the perfect ones above; —
Learn to die without a fear,
Feeling Thee, my Father, near.
