|
| 1 | Child of God, by Christ's salvation, |
| Rise o'er sin and fear and care; |
| Joy to find in every station, |
| Something still to do or bear. |
| Think what Spirit dwells within thee, |
| Think what Father's smiles are thine, |
| Think that Jesus died to win thee, |
| Child of God, wilt thou repine? |
|
| 2 | Haste thee on from grace to glory, |
| Armed by faith and winged by prayer, |
| Heaven's eternal day's before thee, |
| God's right hand shall guide thee there. |
| Soon shall close thine earthly mission, |
| Soon shall pass thy pilgrim days, |
| Hope shall change to glad fruition, |
| Faith to sight, and prayer to praise. |
