My Maker and My King

1My Maker and my King,
To Thee my all I owe;
Thy sovereign bounty is the spring
Whence all my blessings flow;

2The creature of Thy hand,
On Thee alone I live;
My God, Thy benefits demand
More praise than I can give.

3Lord, what can I impart
When all is Thine before?
Thy love demands a thankful heart—
The gift, alas! how poor.

4O! let Thy grace inspire
My soul with strength divine;
Let every word and each desire
And all my days be Thine.
