Let Me Be Diligent

Let me be diligent worker, 
Right before your eyes, O my Lord; 
For it's only You, dear Father 
Who will give me the great reward.

Let me be resourceful servant, 
O God Almighty in heaven; 
I'll devise ways so important 
In climbing the hill and mountain. 

Just let me be able to meet 
Situations that come my way; 
O Lord, success is very sweet, 
If I do my best every day. 

Let me possess earnest effort 
In serving You, dear Almighty; 
You give the strength that I exert 
In religious activity. 

Let me be so assiduous, 
To gain glorious achievement; 
Yes, let me be industrious, 
My Lord, let me be diligent.
