Verse 1
Give us this day our daily bread,
Fresh blessings now on me bestow:
Thy help I every moment need
To pardon, and embrace my foe,
My faith’s sincerity to prove,
And emulate thy dying love.

Verse 2
Whom yesterday I coud forgive,
I cannot, Lord, forgive to day,
Unless I from thyself receive
The constant power to watch and pray,
The grace which nature can controul
And form thy image in my soul.

Verse 3
My nature’s weakness I confess,
Relapsing into angry pride,
Unless Thou still my faith increase,
Still in my loving heart reside,
Take full possession of thine own,
And make it thy eternal throne.

Verse 4
Come then, my loving heart’s desire
And fill the consecrated place,
One with thy co-eternal Sire,
One with thy Spirit of holiness,
And seal my soul thy blest abode,
A temple of the Triune GOD!
