1
To Thee I lift my soul, In Thee my trust repose; My God, O put me not to shame Before triumphant foes.
| 2
None shall be put to shame That humbly wait for Thee, But those that willfully transgress, On them the shame shall be.
| 3
Show me Thy paths, O Lord, Teach me Thy perfect way, O guide me in Thy truth divine, And lead me day by day.
| 4
For Thou art God that dost To me salvation send, And patiently through all the day Upon Thee I attend.
| 5
Recall Thy mercies, Lord, Their tenderness untold, And all Thy lovingkindnesses, For they have been of old. |
