Lord, what is man! that child of pride
That boasts his high degree!
If left one moment to himself,
He sinks—and where is he?
In thee I live, and move, and am;
Thou dealest out my days:
Lord, as thou dost renew my life,
Let me renew thy praise.
To thee I come from thee I am,
For thee I still would be;
’Tis better for me not to live,
Than not to live to thee.
Thou art my living fountain, Lord;
On me thy streams still ?ow:
Myself I render up to thee,
To whom myself I owe.
