 1 

Every thread I wind this day,

Every footstep on life's way,

Every clod I shall unearth,

Every task, whate'er its worth:

Only for God's glory living,

Blessing, praise and honor giving!

 
 2 

All the burdens of the day,

All the words which I shall say,

All the works my God may send,

All the hours in rest I spend:

Ever for His glory living,

Blessing, praise and honor giving!

 
 3 

Every blood-drop in the heart,

Every grief and aching smart,

Every bitter pulse of pain,

Every hour of joy again:

Only for God's glory living,

Blessing, praise and honor giving!

 
 5 

All, from deeds of little worth,

To the greatest things on earth;

Mine to build some world to be,

Or to lie and gaze on Thee:

For Thy glory daily living,

Blessing, praise and honor giving!
