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:
Oh, May It All My Pow’rs Engage
To Do My Master’s Will!
Arm Me With Jealous Care,
As In Thy Sight To Live;
And O Thy Servant, Lord, Prepare
A Strict Account To Give!
Help Me To Watch And Pray,
And On Thyself Rely,
Assured, If I My Trust Betray,
I Shall Forever Die.
