1. A charge to keep I have, A God to glorify, A never-dying soul to save, And fit it for the sky. 2. To serve the present age, My calling to fulfil: O may it all my powers engage To do my Master's will. 3. Arm me with jealous care, As in thy sight to live; And O, thy servant, Lord, prepare A strict account to give. 4. Help me to watch and pray, And on thyself rely, And let me ne'er my trust betray, But press to realms on high.
