Not for more worldly gain,
Lord, do I pray;
But for more gratitude
Ask I this day.
Open my dullard eyes
That I may see
Only Thy truth is real,
Witnessing Thee.
Teach me that loving is
Seeing Thy work;
Teach me that giving means
Never to shirk,
When Love demands of me
Tasks I would slight;
Let me more gratefully
Serve Thee for right,
Striving to speak Thy word
From day to day,
Turning from sense to Soul;
Teach me to pray.
Not for myself alone
Ask I the way;
But for my brother man,
Teach me to pray.
