Parent of all, Omnipotent
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 12 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Parent of all, Omnipotent
I heav'n, and earth below!
Through all creation's vast extent,
Whose streams of goodness flow:
2 Teach me to know, from whence I rose,
And unto what design'd;
Nor selfish aims may I propose,
Since link'd with human kind.
3 But chief to hear my country's voice
May my best thoughts incline:
'Tis reason's law, 'tis virtue's choice,
'Tis nature's call, and thine.
4 Me from fair freedom's sacred cause
May nothing e'er divide;
Nor grandeur, gold nor vain applause,
Nor friendship false misguide.
5 To duty, honour, virtue true,
In all my country's weal,
Let me my public walk pursue:
So, God, thy favour deal! Topics: Social Duties; Virtuous love of country
