By whose sufficient grace
I lift my heart to things above,
And humbly seek your face.
Through Jesus Christ the Just,
My best desires receive;
And let me in your goodness trust,
And to your glory live.
Whate'er I say or do,
Your glory be my aim;
My offerings all be offered through
The ever-blessed name!
Jesus, my single eye
Be fixed on you alone:
Your name be praised on earth, on high;
Your will by me be done!
Spirit of faith, inspire
My consecrated heart;
Fill me with pure, celestial fire,
With all you have and are.
(a hymn by Charles Wesley, slightly revised and updated; NASA photo via everystockphoto.com)
