So teach us Lord, our days to use,

To glorify Thy name;

Help us to play the role of life,

As wise men play the game.

Help us to be purer than dew,

And whiter than the snow;

To manifest Thy love Divine,

As through this life we go.

May our delight be found in Thee,

The Bright and Morning Star;

Help us to play the Christian role,

And make a perfect par.

Help us to bear the fruit of love,

And that of gentleness;

And worship Thee in the beauty,

Beauty of Holiness.

The fruit of peace and joy and hope,

And that of meekness too;

Yea, we would bear in all we say,

And in that which we do.

Yea in the hollow of Thy hand,

Keep us Eternal God;

And may we feel the comfort of.

Thy blessed staff and rod.
