our daily labour to pursue,
you, only you, resolved to know
in all we think, or speak, or do.
2 The task your wisdom has assigned
here let us cheerfully fulfil;
in all our works your presence find,
and prove your good and perfect will.
3 You may we set at our right hand,
whose eyes our inmost secrets view,
and labour on at your command
and offer all our works to you.
4 Help us to bear your easy yoke,
in every moment watch and pray,
and still to things eternal look,
and hasten to that glorious day.
5 Then with delight may we employ
all that your bounteous grace has given,
and run our earthly course with joy,
and closely walk with you to heaven. Used With Tune: CANONBURY
