70. My One Endeavor

1 O help me, dear Lord, Thy love to praise,
From death to life it brought me;
And now I sing the glad new song,
Thy grace divine has taught me.

Refrain:
Help me to live, O Lord, for Thee,
Be this my one endeavor,
To glorify Thy name on earth,
And reign with Thee forever.

2 O help me to make of all I have,
I willing consecration,
To spread abroad the joyful news
Of free and full salvation. [Refrain]

3 O help me to trust, and watch, and pray,
Thy precious word believing;
To walk by faith from day to day,
No more Thy Spirit grieving. [Refrain]

4 O help me to do whate’er Thou wilt,
To go where Thou wouldst send me;
Assured of this, my Saviour’s hand
Will guide and still defend me. [Refrain]
