O Thou, who hast Thy servants taught

That not by words alone,

But by the fruits of holiness,

The life of God is shown;

While in Thy house of prayer we meet,

And call Thee God and Lord,

Give us a heart to follow Thee,

Obedient to Thy word!

When we our voices lift in praise,

Give Thou us grace to bring

An offering of unfeigned thanks,

And with the spirit sing.

And in the dangerous path of life

Uphold us as we go;

That with our lips and in our lives

Thy glory we may show.
