776. Teach Me Thy Truth

1 Teach me thy truth, O mighty One,
from sin, O set me free.
Prepare my life to fill its place
in service, God, for thee.

2 Accept my talents, great or small,
choose thou the path for me,
where I shall labor joyously
in service, God, for thee.

3 Help me to show thy glorious way
that leads in hope to thee,
till other souls their joy shall find
in service, God, for thee.

4 Grant me thy grace for ev’ry task
until thy face I see,
then ever new shall be that joy
in service, God, for thee.
