<p>O Lord and Master of us all,<br>
Whate&#8217;er our name or sign,<br>
We own Thy sway, we hear Thy call,<br>
We test our lives by Thine.</p>
<p>Thou judgest us; Thy purity<br>
Doth all our lusts condemn;<br>
The love that draws us nearer Thee<br>
Is hot with wrath to them.</p>
<p>Our thoughts lie open to Thy sight<br>
And naked to Thy glance<br>
Our secret sins are in the light<br>
Of Thy pure countenance.</p>
<p>Yet weak and blinded though we be,<br>
Thou dost our service own;<br>
We bring our varying gifts to Thee,<br>
And Thou rejectest none.</p>
<p>To Thee our full humanity,<br>
Its joys and pains belong;<br>
The wrong of man to man on Thee<br>
Inflicts a deeper wrong.</p>
<p>Who hates, hates Thee; who loves, becomes<br>
Therein to Thee allied:<br>
All sweet accords of hearts and homes<br>
In Thee are multiplied.</p>
<p>Apart from Thee all gain is loss,<br>
All labor vainly done;<br>
The solemn shadow of the cross<br>
Is better than the sun.</p>
<p>We faintly hear, we dimly see,<br>
In differing phrase we pray;<br>
But dim or clear, we own in Thee<br>
The Light, the Truth, the Way.</p>
