Shine Thou upon us, Lord, true Light of men, today
And through the written Word Thy very self display
That so from hearts which burn with gazing on Thy face
Thy little ones may learn the wonders of Thy grace.
Breathe Thou upon us, Lord, Thy Spirit's living flame
That so with one accord our lips may tell Thy Name
Give Thou the hearing ear, fix Thou the wandering thought
That those we teach may hear the great things Thou hast wrought.
Speak Thou for us, O Lord, in all we say of Thee
According to Thy Word let all our teaching be
That so Thy lambs may know their own true Shepherd's voice
Where'er He leads them go, and in His love rejoice.
Live Thou within us, Lord, Thy mind and will be ours
Be Thou beloved, adored, and served with all our powers
That so our lives may teach Thy children what Thou art
And plead, by more than speech, for Thee with every heart.
