God, the all-wise, and Creator of the human intellect, guide our search for truth
and knowledge, all our thoughts and ways direct. Help us build the towers of learning,
that would make us wise, astute. On the rock of holy Scripture, truth revealed
and absolute.
O how vast the shores of learning--there are still uncharted seas. And they call
to bold adventure, those who turn from sloth and ease. But we need Thy hand to
guide us, in the studies we pursue. And the presence of Thy Spirit, to illumine
all we do.
May the things we learn, so meager, never lift our hearts in pride. Till in
foolish self-reliance, we would wander from Thy side. Let them only bind us closer,
Lord, to Thee, in whom we find very foundtain-head of wisdom, light and life
of all mankind.
