Author: Jane Eliza Leeson, 1807 - 82 Hymnal: Service Book and Hymnal of the Lutheran Church in America #528 (1958) Lyrics: 1 Saviour, teach me, day by day,
Love's sweet lesson to obey;
Sweeter lesson cannot be,
Loving him who first loved me.
2 With a child's glad heart of love
At thy bidding may I move,
Prompt to serve and follow thee,
Loving him who first loved me.
3 Teach me thus thy steps to trace,
Strong to follow in thy grace,
Learning how to love from thee,
Loving him who first loved me. A-men.
4 Love in loving finds employ,
In obedience all her joy;
Ever new that joy will be,
Loving him who first loved me.
5 Thus may I rejoice to show
That I feel the love I owe;
Singing, till thy face I see,
Of his love who first loved me.
