If washed in Jesus' blood, Then bear His likeness too, And as you onward press Ask, "What would Jesus do?"
What He tells thee in the darkness, Weary watcher for the day, Grateful lip and heart should utter When the shadows flee away.
Teach us, Master, how to give All we have and are to Thee; Grant us, Saviour, while we live, Wholly, only Thine to be.
Oh to be my verse an answering gleam from higher radiance caught
....We write our lives indeed, But in a cipher none can read, Except the author
Jesus, Master, I am Thine; Keep me faithful, keep me near; Let Thy presence in me shine All my homeward way to cheer. Jesus, at Thy feet I fall, Oh, be Thou my All in All.
