The offerings to thy throne which rise,
Of mingled praise and prayer,
Are but a worthless sacrifice
Unless the heart is there.
Upon thine all-discerning ear
Let no vain words intrude;
No tribute, but the vow sincere,
The tribute of the good.
My offerings will indeed be blest,
If sanctified by thee;
If thy pure Spirit touch my breast
With its own purity.
O may that Spirit warm my heart
To piety and love,
And to life’s lowly vale impart
Some rays from heaven above.
---Alternative verses---
Our offerings will indeed be blest,
If sanctified by thee;
If thy pure Spirit touch my breast
With its own purity.
