Occupy till I come.
Luke 19:13.
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 fulfill;
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,
Assured, if I my trust betray,
I shall for ever die.
C. Wesley.
