Almighty Father! Thou hast many blessings

In store for every loving child of Thine;

For this I pray, – Let me, Thy grace possessing,

Seek to be guided by Thy will divine.

Not for earth’s treasures, – for her joys the dearest, —

Would I my supplications raise to Thee;

Not for the hopes that to my heart are nearest,

But only that I give that heart to Thee.

I pray that Thou wouldst guide and guard me ever;

Cleanse, by Thy power, from every stain of sin;

I will Thy blessing ask on each endeavor,

And thus Thy promised peace my soul shall win.
