May We Thy Precepts, Lord, Fulfill

May we Thy pre­cepts

Lord

ful­fill

And do on earth our Fa­ther’s will

As an­gels do ab­ove;

Still walk in Christ

the liv­ing Way

With all Thy child­ren and ob­ey

The law of Christ­ian love.

So may we join Thy name to bless

Thy grace adore

Thy pow­er con­fess

From sin and strife to flee.

One is our call­ing

one our name

The end of all our hopes the same

A crown of life with Thee.

Spirit of life

of love and peace

Unite our hearts

our joy in­crease

Thy gra­cious help sup­ply.

To each of us the bless­ing give

In Christ­ian fel­low­ship to live

In joy­ful hope to die.
