765. Make duty plain, O Lord

1 Make duty plain, O Lord,
Thy will we seek to know;
O grant thy Spirit with thy word,
To guide our steps below.

2 May feeling hearts be ours,
And tender conscience, too;
Awaken all our slumbering powers
Thy righteous will to do.

3 Help us thy truth to love,
And while we love, obey;
Be thou our counsel from above,
Show us thy will and way.
