Life of my life lyrics

Life of my life,

I shall ever try

to keep my body pure,

knowing that thy living touch

is upon all my limbs.

I shall ever try to keep

all untruths out from my thoughts,

knowing that thou art that truth

which has kindled

the light of reason in my mind.

I shall ever try

to drive all evils away from my heart

and keep my love in flower,

knowing that thou

hast thy seat in the inmost shrine of my heart.

And it shall be my endeavour

to reveal thee in my actions,

knowing it is thy power

that gives me strength to act.
