Great Teacher of thy church, we own
Thy precepts all divinely wise;
Oh, may thy mighty power be known
To fix them all before our eyes.
Deep on our hearts thy law engrave,
And fill us with a heavenly zeal;
That while we trust thy power to save,
We may thy sacred law fulfil.
May we, beholding in a glass,
Thy glory with its lustre shine;
And clothed with every heavenly grace,
Be known to all around as thine.
Thy lovely image, bright and fair,
Our heavenly Father shall proclaim;
And men that see its brightness there
Shall join to glorify his name.
Of truth the pillar and the ground,
May we continue all our days;
In love and discipline be found,
And live to our Redeemer’s praise.
