Text: | Be it my only wisdom here |
Author: | C. Wesley |
Tune: | PURLEIGH |
1 Be it my only wisdom here
To serve the Lord with filial fear,
With loving gratitude!
Knowledge divine may I display,
By shunning every evil way,
And walking in the good.
2 O may I still from sin depart!
A wise and understanding heart,
Jesus, to me be given!
And let me through thy Spirit know
To glorify my God below,
And find my way to heaven.
