Samuel Webbe, 1782

1.All that I am I owe to Thee,
Thy wisdom, Lord, has fashioned me;
I give my Maker thankful praise,
Whose wondrous works my soul amaze.

2.Ere into being I was brought,
Thy eye did see, and in Thy thought;
My life in all its perfect plan,
Was ordered ere my days began.

3.Thy thoughts, O God, how manifold;
More precious unto me than gold;
I muse on their infinity;
Awaking I am still with Thee.

4.The wicked Thou wilt surely slay;
From me let sinners turn away;
They speak against the Name divine;
I count God's enemies as mine.

5.Search me, O God, my heart discern;
Try me, my inmost thought to learn;
And lead me, if in sin I stray,
To choose the everlasting way.
