Father, lead me day by day,
Ever in Thine own sweet way,
Teach me to be pure and true,
Show me what I ought to do.
May I do the good I know,
Be Thy loving child below,
Then at last home to Thee,
Ever more Thy child to be.
When my heart is full of glee,
Help me to remember Thee,
Happy most of all to know,
That my Father loves me so.
