Need the name (and words) to hymn that has these words in it:

"A man may look on glass,
On it may stay his eye.
But if he pleaseth through it pass
And then the Heavens espy."

Anybody?

Not sure about the hymn, but it is part of The Elixir by George Herbert:

Thanks.
The hymm starts:

Teach me, my God and King,
in all things Thee to see
and what I do in anything
to do it as for Thee.

Do you want any more of it?
Question Author
Yes, please! I would like it all -- and the hymn's name, composer, etc.
I estimate your age at at least 60 years. Am I right? (Or just being cheeky?!)
Thanks in anticipation.
