428. O Thou, Who hast at Thy command

1 O Thou, Who hast at Thy command
The hearts of all men in Thy hand,
Our wayward, erring hearts incline
To know no other will but Thine.

2 Our wishes, our desires, control;
Mold every purpose of the soul;
O’er all may we victorious prove
That stands between us and Thy love.

3 Thrice blest will all our blessings be,
When we can look through them to Thee;
When each glad heart its tribute pays
Of love, and gratitude, and praise.

r And while we to Thy glory live,
May we to Thee all glory give,
Until the final summons come,
That calls Thy willing servants home. Amen.
