Teach us, O Lord, the great concern,
To know thy will, thy name to love;
Our duty from thy word to learn.
And gain the wisdom from above,
Religion, richest blessing given,
Fountain of all our joys below.
Bids mortals lift their eyes to heaven,
In scenes of darkness and of woe.
Religion must be all in all,
Would we th' immortal prize obtain,
Retrieve the ruins of the fall,
And 'scape the death of endless pain.
Send thy good Spirit, Lord, we pray,
To sanctify and cleanse our heart:
May we repent, believe, obey.
And from thy service ne'er depart.
