Author: Harriet Oagood Munger Hymnal: The Hymnal #395 (1950) Meter: 8.5.8.3 Lyrics: 1 O my Father, I would know Thee
And Thy holy will;
From Thy fount my thirsty spirit
Daily fill.
2 I would turn my highest powers
Into service sweet;
For all ministry to others
Make me meet.
3 As the bird who scorns earth's sadness,
Mounting on the wing,
Would my soul, her fret o'ercoming,
Rise and sing.
4 Sharing thus the Master's spirit,
Following where He trod,
I would rise through joyous service
Unto God.
Amen. Topics: The Kingdom of God on Earth Stewardship; Brotherhood; Discipleship and Service; Service; Stewardship Tune Title: ST. HELEN'S
