Help us, O Lord, to learn
     the truths your word imparts;
to study, that your laws may be
     inscribed upon our hearts.

     Help us, O Lord, to live
     the faith which we proclaim,
that all our thoughts and words and deeds
     may glorify your name.

     Help us, O Lord, to teach
     the beauty of your ways,
that yearning souls may find the Christ
     and sing aloud his praise.
