1 What have I done, my soul, today?
May I dear Lord in meekness say,

What have I done? Lead Thou the way,
My hand in Thine, teach me to say,
What have I done today, today?
What have I done today?

2 What have I done? so little, Lord,
It ne’er can merit Thy reward,
What have I done today, today?
What have I done today? [Refrain]

3 What have I done? be Thou my guide,
Help me to say while near Thy side,
What have I done today, today?
What have I done today? [Refrain]
