724. 7s. M. Byrant.

A Blessing invoked on Christian Teachers.

1Mighty One, before whose face,

Wisdom had her glorious seat,

When the orbs that people space

Sprang to birth beneath thy feet;

2Source of truth, whose rays alone

Light the mighty world of mind;

God of love, who from thy throne

Kindly watchest all mankind;

3Shed on those, who in thy name

Teach the way of truth and right,

Shed that love's undying flame,

Shed that wisdom's guiding light.
