With Joy We Own Thy Servant, Lord,
Thy Minister Below,
Ordained To Spread Thy Truth Abroad,
That All Thy Name May Know.
O May He Now, And Ever, Keep
His Eye Intent On Thee:
Do Thou, Great Shepherd Of The Sheep,
His Bright Example Be.
With Plenteous Grace His Heart Prepare
To Execute Thy Will;
And Give Him Patience, Love, And Care,
And Faithfulness And Skill.
Inflame His Mind With Ardent Zeal,
Thy Flock To Feed And Teach;
And Let Him Live, And Let Him Feel,
The Truths He’s Called To Preach.
As Showers Refresh The Thirsty Plain,
So Let His Labours Prove:
By Him Extend Thy Righteous Reign—
The Reign Of Truth And Love.
