Is God the sovereign whom I serve,
His work my sweet employ?
Do I his gracious favour seek,
Nor wish a greater joy?
Do I my utmost power exert,
Those talents to improve,
Which were committed to my trust,
By his distinguished love?
To God alone shall be the praise,
While I his will perform;
‘Tis he succeeds my weak attempts,
And helps a feeble worm.
