What taught me the first great cause
Who existed ere creation rose
And gave us our universal laws
The Bible
What guide can lead me to this power
Whom conscience calls me to adore
And bids me seek him more and more
The Bible
When all my actions prosper well
And higher hopes my wishes swell
What points where truer blessings dwell
The Bible
