1 Forth in thy name, O Lord, I go, my daily labor to pursue; Thee, only Thee, resolved to know in all I think or speak or do. 2 The task Thy wisdom hath assigned, O let me cheerfully fulfill; in all my works Thy presence find, and prove thy good and perfect will. 3 Thee may I set at my right hand, whose eyes mine in-most substance see, and labor on at Thy command, and offer all my works to Thee. 4 For Thee delightfully employ what e'er Thy bounteous grace hath giv'n; and run my course with even joy, and closely walk with Thee to heav'n.
