Text:All that I am I owe to thee
Tune:FEDERAL STREET
Composer:Henry K. Oliver

34. All that I am I owe to thee

1 All that I am I owe to thee,
Thy wisdom, Lord, has fashioned me;
I give my Maker thankful praise,
Whose wondrous works my soul amaze.

2 Ere into being I was brought,
Thine eye did see, and in thy thought
My life in all its perfect plan
Was ordered ere my days began.

3 Thy thoughts, O God, how manifold,
More precious unto me than gold!
I muse on their infinity,
Awaking I am still with thee.

4 The wicked thou wilt surely slay,
From me let sinners turn away;
They speak against the Name divine,
I count God's enemies as mine.

5 Search me, O God, my heart discern,
Try me, my inmost thought to learn;
And lead me, if in sin I stray,
To choose the everlasting way.

Amen.
