- 1Teach me, my God and King,
- In all things Thee to see,
- And what I do in anything
- To do it as for Thee;
- 2To scorn the senses' sway,
- While still to Thee I tend:
- In all I do be Thou the Way,
- In all be Thou the End.
- 3All may of Thee partake;
- Nothing so small can be
- But draws, when acted for Thy sake,
- Greatness and worth from Thee:
- 4If done to obey Thy laws,
- E'en servile labors shine;
- Hallowed is toil, if this the cause,
- The meanest work Divine.
- 5Amen.
