OH FOR A HEART TO PRAISE MY GOD

Oh, for a life to please my God,

in every little thing,

a holy life, that day by day

to Him will glory bring!




A life lived only unto Him,

no double aim in view,

the outcome of a Christ-like heart,

by God made pure and new.




A life which Jesus guides alone,

o'er which He has control!

A life which others seeing, say

that Jesus owns the whole.




Jesus, complete Thy work in me,

the work Thou hast begun:

each day may I grow more like Thee,

until my race is run.
