516. O Son of God and Man, Receive

1 O Son of God and man, receive
This humble work of mine;
Worth to my meanest labor give
By blessing it with Thine.

2 Servant of all, to toil for man
Thou didst not, Lord, refuse;
Thy majesty did not disdain
To be employed for us.

3 In all I think, or speak, or do,
Let me show forth Thy praise,
Thy bright example still pursue
Through all my future days.

4 By faith through outward cares I go
From all distraction free;
My hands alone engaged below,
My spirit still with Thee.
