Author: George Herbert, 1593 - 1633; John Wesley Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #451a (1958) Lyrics: 1 Teach me, my God and King,
In all things thee to see,
And what I do in anything,
To do it as for thee. A-men.
2 To scorn the senses’ sway,
While still to thee I tend;
In all I do be thou the way,
In all be thou the end.
3 All may of thee partake;
Nothing so small can be,
But draws, when acted for thy sake,
Greatness and worth from thee.
4 If done to obey thy laws,
E’en servile labors shine;
Hallowed is toil if this the cause,
The meanest work, divine.
5 Thee, then, my God and King,
In all things may I see,
And what I do in anything,
May it be done for thee.
