American Lutheran Hymnal ‎#159

159. Savior, Teach Me Day By Day

1 Savior, teach me day by day
Love's sweet lesson to obey;
Sweeter lessons cannot be,
Loving Him who first loved me.

2 With a childlike heart of love,
At Thy bidding may I move:
Prompt to serve and follow Thee,
Loving Him who first loved me.

3 Teach me all Thy steps to trace,
Strong to follow in Thy grace;
Learning how to love from Thee;
Loving Him who first loved me.

4 Love in loving finds employ,
In obedience all her joy;
Ever new that joy will be,
Loving Him who first loved me.

5 Thus may I rejoice to show
That I feel the love I owe;
Singing, till Thy face I see,
Of His love who first loved me.

Amen.
