281 Help Me Teach with Inspiration Fervently 1. Help me teach with inspiration; Grant this blessing, Lord, I pray. Help me lift a soul’s ambition To a higher, nobler way. 2. Help me reach a friend in darkness; Help me guide him thru the night. Help me show thy path to glory By the Spirit’s holy light. 3. Fill my mind with understanding; Tune my voice to echo thine. Touch my hand with gentle friendship; Warm my heart with love divine. 4. Help me find thy lambs who wander; Help me bring them to thy keep. Teach me, Lord, to be a shepherd; Father, help me feed thy sheep. Text and music: Lorin F. Wheelwright, 1909–1987. © 1958, 1985 Lorin F. Wheelwright.
