Gracious God, how good Thou art!
Let Thy goodness fill my heart;
Let Thy wisdom me engage,
Now in this my childish age.
Let Thy power my mind perceive;
In Thy Son I do believe—
In His love may I abide,
Cleaving closely to His side.
May His blood my conscience know,
As that which makes me white as snow
Through faith in Jesus by God’s Word,
Through faith in Christ the coming Lord.
