O teach us more of Thy blest ways
Create PowerPoint slides from this hymn →A devotional hymn by Moravian leader James Hutton (1715–1795) expressing longing to know Christ more deeply — His ways, His love, and His suffering — and to count all earthly things as loss in comparison to Him, echoing Philippians 3:8.
Verse 1
O teach us more of Thy blest ways,
Thou holy Lamb of God!
And fix and root us in Thy grace,
As those redeemed by blood.
Verse 2
O tell us often of Thy love,
Of all Thy grief and pain!
And let our hearts with joy confess
That thence comes all our gain.
Verse 3
For this, O may we freely count
Whate'er we have but loss!
The dearest object of our love
Compared with Thee but dross.
Verse 4
Engrave this deeply on our heart,
Conform our ways to Thine,
That so we may, in some degree,
Reflect the light divine.
