Teach us, Master, how to give
All we have and are to Thee;
Grant us, Saviour, while we live,
Wholly, only Thine to be.

A word in season, as from Thee,
To weary ones in needful hour.

Then bear His likeness too,
And as you onward press
Ask, "What would Jesus do?"

Weary watcher for the day,
Grateful lip and heart should utter
When the shadows flee away.
