Jesus, my Savior, and my Lord

Jesus, my Savior, and my Lord,
To thee I lift mine eyes;
Teach and instruct me by thy word,
And make me truly wise.

Make me to know and understand
Thy whole revealed will;
Fain would I learn to comprehend
Thy love more clearly still.

Help me to read the Bible o'er
With ever-new delight.
Help me to love its Author more;
To seek thee day and night.

O let it purify my heart,
And guide me all my days;
Its wonders, Lord, to me impart,
And thou shalt have the praise.
