Teach me Thy song, O Lord--

That song which graced creation's dawn

And bid the firmament unfurl;

That bathed the newborn world in uncreated light-

That song so bright!

Teach me Thy song, O Lord.

Teach me Thy song, O Lord--

That song which burst Thy Servant's heart

To beat of blows upon the cross;

His pain, and bitterest loss,

And death that should be mine;

His song was Thine--

Teach me Thy song, O Lord.

Teach me Thy song, O Lord--

That song which swirls to wreathe Thy throne,

And bears the prayers of all Thine own;

To Thee, and Thee alone

By saints and angels raised,

Thy Name to praise--

Teach me Thy song, O Lord.

by Joel Nagy
