I dare not choose my lot; I would not, if I might; Choose thou for me, my God: So shall I walk aright. Take thou my cup, and it With joy or sorrow fill, As best to thee may seem; Choose thou my good and ill.

Jesus, health of sinful men, Give ear unto our loving prayer; Guide thou our wandering feet again, And hold our doings in thy care. 6 O Jesus, of the Virgin born, Immortal honour be to thee; Praise to the Father infinite, And Holy Ghost eternally.
