WHAT WILT THOU HAVE ME TO DO?

Prostrate, O Lord, in dust, My spirit lies; To Christ, my only trust, I lift my eyes; With doubt perplexed, What course shall I pursue? O show me, gracious Lord, what thou wouldst have me do?
What shall I do for thee, My soul's best friend— Thou, who to die for me Didst condescend? What trial for thee bear, Or cross sustain, Who bore a cross for me, a cross of scorn and shame.
My heart by love constrained, Pants for the field, To souls in sin enchained, Succor to yield: But still no open path-way Meets my view, O tell me, gracious Lord, what thou wouldst have me do.
