The Abingdon Song Book ‎#280

280. Show Us Thy Way, O God

1 Show us Thy way, O God!
Our feet have wandered far.
We seek the path Thy saints have trod,
Where peace and beauty are.

2 Teach us Thy word, O God!
Subdue earth’s racking din;
That we may heart at home, abroad,
The still small voice within.

3 Tell us Thy will, O God!
Our own we cannot trust.
We seek the summons of Thy rod
To raises us from the dust.

4 Thy way, Thy word, Thy will—
These are our surest guides
To bring us where Thy spirit still
In holiness abides.

Amen.
