A CHARGE TO KEEP I HAVE,
A GOD TO GLORIFY;
A NEVER-DYING SOUL TO SAVE,
AND FIT IT FOR THE SKY.
TO SERVE THE PRESENT AGE,
MY CALLING TO FULFILL;
O MAY IT ALL MY POWERS ENGAGE
TO DO MY MASTERS WILL.
ARM ME WITH JEALOUS CARE,
AS IN THY SIGHT TO LIVE;
AND OH! THY SERVANT, LORD, PREPARE
A STRICT ACCOUNT TO GIVE!
HELP ME TO WATCH AND PRAY,
AND ON THY SELF RELY!
ASSURED IF I MY TRUST BETRAY,
I SHALL FOR EVER DIE.
