Author: John W. Peterson Hymnal: Praise! Our Songs and Hymns #145 (1979) First Line: God, the all-wise, and Creator Lyrics: 1 God, the all-wise, and Creator
Of the human intellect,
Guide our search for truth and knowledge,
All our thoughts and ways direct.
Help us build the tow’rs of learning
That would make us wise, astute,
On the rock of Holy Scripture:
Truth revealed and absolute.
2 O how vast the shores of learning—
There are still uncharted seas,
And they call to bold adventure
Those who turn from sloth and ease.
But we need Your hand to guide us
In the studies we pursue,
And the presence of Your Spirit
To illumine all we do.
3 May the things we learn, so meager,
Never lift our hearts in pride
Till in foolish self-reliance
We would wander from Your side.
Let them only bind us closer,
Lord, to You, in whom we find
Very fountain-head of wisdom,
Light and life of all mankind. Topics: The Church Christian Education Tune Title: ELLESDIE
