Give me a pure heart, that I may see Thee,

….a humble heart, that I may hear Thee,

…….a heart of love, that I may serve Thee,

……….a heart of faith, that I may abide in Thee.

………….a heart of courage, that I may follow Thee,

…………….a heart of joy, that I may sing with Thee,

……………….a heart of praise, that I may adore Thee,

………………….a heart of gratitude, that I may thank Thee,

…………………….a heart of kindness, that I may emulate Thee,

……………………….a heart of hospitality, that I may welcome Thee,

………………………….a heart of hope, that I may trust in Thee.
