Teach Us By His Example Lyrics
1. Teach us by his example, Lord,
For whom we honour Thee today,
And grant his witness of Thy Word
Thy Church enlighten ever may;
And, as beloved, O Christ, he was,
And therefore leaned on Thy Breast;
So let us also in Thy grace,
And on Thy sacred Bosom rest!

2. Into us breathe that Life Divine,
Whose testimony he intends;
About us cause Thy Light to shine,
That which no darkness comprehends:
And let that Ever Blessed Word
Which all things did create of nought,
Anew create us now, O lord,
Whose ruin sin hath almost wrought.

3. Thy holy Faith we do profess,
Us to Thy Fellowship receive;
Our sins we heartily confess,
Thy Pardon therefore let us have;
And, as to us Thy Servant gives
Occasion thus to honour Thee;
So also let our words and lives
As lights and guides to others be.
