Part 5 (1/2)
Hold me fast and guide me In the narrow way; So, with Thee beside me, I shall never stray.
Daily bring me nearer To the heavenly sh.o.r.e; May my faith grow clearer.
May I love Thee more!
Hallow every pleasure, Every gift and pain; Be Thyself my Treasure.
Though none else I gain. Amen.
78.
We thank Thee, heav'nly Father, For ev'ry earthly good, For life, and health, and clothing, And for our daily food.
O give us hearts to thank Thee, For ev'ry blessing sent, And whatsoe'er Thou sendest Make us therewith content. Amen.
79.
Holy Jesus, be my Light, s.h.i.+ne upon my way; Through this tempting, changing life Lead me day by day. Amen.
80.
Lord, be Thou my constant Guide, Lead me all the way, Till I reach Thy home at last, Nevermore to stray. Amen.
81.
O G.o.d, Thou faithful G.o.d, Thou Fount that ever flowest, Without whom nothing is, Who all good gifts bestowest: A pure and healthy frame O give me and within A conscience free from blame, A soul unhurt by sin. Amen.
For School and Church.
82.
Lord Jesus Christ, to us attend.
Thy Holy Spirit to us send. Amen.
83.
Lord, teach us how to keep Thy day And lead and bless us all the way. Amen.
84.
Lord, open Thou my heart to hear And by Thy Word to me draw near; Let me Thy Word still pure retain, Let me Thy child and heir remain. Amen.
