- 1Equip me for the war,
- And teach my hands to fight;
- My simple, upright heart prepare,
- And guide my words aright.
- 2Control my ev'ry thought;
- And all my sins remove;
- Let all my works in Thee be wrought,
- Let all be wrought in love.
- 3Oh, arm me with the mind,
- Meek Lamb, that was in Thee!
- And let enlighten'd zeal be join'd
- With perfect charity.
- 4Oh, may I love like Thee!
- In all Thy footsteps tread;
- Thou hatest all inquity,
- But nothing Thou hast made.
- 5Oh, may I learn the art,
- With meekness to reprove!
- And hate the sin with all my heart,
- But still the sinner love.
