1.

Bring me to quietness, Jesus my Savior,
So that I always can hear what You say.
Show me Your footsteps and fill me with faith, Lord;
Then I can boldly press onward each day.

2.

Teach me to be like You, yielded and peaceful,
Bearing my cross as myself I deny.
I need to show by my life that I’m Yours, Lord.
Help me be true—thus Your name glorify.

3.

Teach me to fear You, abide in Your cleansing,
So in my heart I more wisdom can gain.
All that I have is in You, therefore give me
Faith so I always in vict’ry can reign.
