986. Father, do teach me

```

Father, do teach me

How to think of You.

“Daughter, I shall ask

My Illumination

To teach you how to think of Me.”

Father, do teach me

How to love You.

“Daughter, I shall ask

My Silence

To teach you how to love Me.”

Father, do teach me

How to obey You.

“Daughter, I shall ask

My Gratitude

To teach you how to obey Me.”

Father, do teach me

How to serve You.

“Daughter, I shall ask

My Delight

To teach you how to serve Me.”
