LyicsIn all my ways, O God!
I would acknowledge thee;
And seek to keep my heart and house
From all pollution free.
Where'er I have a tent,
An altar will I raise;
And thither my oblations bring
Of humble prayer and praise.
Could I my wish obtain,
My household, Lord, should be
Devoted to thyself alone,
A nursery for thee.
