Equip me for the war,
And teach me how to fight:
My mind and heart, O Lord, prepare,
And guide my words aright.
With calm and tempered zeal,
Let me proclaim thy plan;
And vindicate thy gracious will
Which offers life to man.
O! may I love like thee,
In love declare thy ways,
And help the blinded ones to see
Thy truth declares thy praise.
And teach me, Lord, the art
With wisdom to remove
The errors that deceive the heart,
And truth to clearly prove.
O! arm me with the mind,
Meek Lamb, that was in thee;
And let my fervent zeal be joined
With grace and charity.
Control my ev'ry thought.
My talents all enlist;
And may my zeal to judgment, brought,
Prove true beneath thy test.
