Lyics

Savior! teach me, day by day,

Love's sweet lessons to obey;

Sweeter lessons can not be,

Loving him who first loved me.

With a child-like heart of love,

At thy bidding may I move;

Prompt to serve and follow thee,

Loving him who first loved me.



Teach me all thy steps to trace,

Strong to follow in thy grace;

Learning how to love from thee,

Loving him who first loved me.

Love in loving finds employ-

In obedience all her joy;

Ever new that joy will be,

Loving him who first loved me.
