God's will would I do,
My own will bridle;
God's due would I give,
My own due yield;
God's path would I travel,
My own path refuse;
Christ's death would I ponder,
My own death remember;
Christ's agony would I meditate,
My love to God make warmer;
Christ's cross would I carry,
My own cross forget;
Repentance of sin would I make,
Early repentance choose;
A bridle to my tongue I would put,
A bridle on my thoughts I would keep
God's judgement would I judge,
My own judgement guard;
Christ's redemption would I seize,
My own ransom work;
The love of Christ would I feel,
My own love know.
