His Light my Guide ! His Law my rule !

His Light my Guide! His Law my rule!
Blest precepts of His holy school!
Their feet will stray, their hearts rebel,
Who do not love these precepts well.

Grav'n by His Love on every cross,
They teach the gain of every loss;
Grav'n by His cross on every heart,
It learns to choose the better part.

'Tis thus the holy sign I read,
And ever in mine hour of need,
Find peace in Him who for me died,
His Law my rule! His Light my Guide!
