Dear Master In Whose Life
 (Sung text for setting by M. Fax)
 See base text
Language: English 
Dear Master, in whose life I see
All  ...  I would, but fail to be;
Let Thy clear light forever shine,
To shame and guide this life of mine.

Through what I dream and what I do
In my weak days are always two,
Help me, oppressed by things undone,
O Thou, whose deeds and dreams were one!
