Forth in Thy Name O
Lord I go
My daily labour to
pursue
Thee only Thee
resolved to know
In all I think or
speak or do
The task Thy Wisdom
hath assigned
O let me cheerfully
fulfil
In all my works Thy
Presence find
And prove Thy Good
and Perfect Will
Thee may I set at
my right hand
Whose Eyes my
inmost substance see
And labour on at
Thy Command
And offer my works
to Thee
Give me to bear Thy
easy yoke
And every moment
watch and pray
And still to things
eternal look
And hasten to Thy
Glorious Day
For Thee delightfully
employ
What’er Thy
bounteous grace hath given
And run my course
with even joy
And closely walk
with Thee to heaven
I love this hymn so very much especially verses 1 and 5
