I And My House Will Serve The Lord:
But First Obedient To His Word
I Must Myself Appear;
By Actions, Words, And Tempers Show,
That I My Heavenly Master Know,
And Serve With Heart Sincere.

I Must The Fair Example Set;
From Those That On My Pleasure Wait
The Stumbling-Block Remove;
Their Duty By My Life Explain;
And Still In All My Works Maintain
The Dignity Of Love.

Easy To Be Entreated, Mild,
Quickly Appeased And Reconciled,
A Follower Of My God,
A Saint Indeed, I Long To Be,
And Lead My Faithful Family
In The Celestial Road.

Lord, If Thou Didst The Wish Infuse,
A Vessel Fitted For Thy Use
Into Thy Hands Receive!
Work In Me Both To Will And Do;
And Show Them How Believers True
And Real Christians Live.

With All-Sufficient Grace Supply;
And, Lo! I Come To Testify
The Wonders Of Thy Name,
Which Saves From Sin, The World, And Hell;
Whose Virtue Every Heart May Feel,
And Every Tongue Proclaim.

A Sinner, Saved Myself From Sin,
I Come My Family To Win,
To Preach Their Sins Forgiven;
Children, And Wife, And Servants Seize,
And Through The Paths Of Pleasantness
Conduct Them All To Heaven.
