O thou whom we have learned to love,
From whom we had our birth,
Thou art our bliss in heaven above,
And thou upon this earth.
How vain is power or glittering wealth
Or all the joys we see!
Al what are friends beloved, or health,
Or life compared with thee?
While sinners toil in anxious mood
Toil on and know no rest,
Oh, make us holy, wise, and good,
Then we are rich and blessed.
