1 Encouraged by Thy love and care,
I bend the suppliant knee,
And offer in Thy house of prayer,
My vows, oh Lord, to Thee.

2 When languor seized my feeble frame,
And threatened speedy death,
From Thee the timely succor came,
Which gave me back my breath.

3 Now by Thy power and grace restored,
And rescued from the grave,
What shall I render to the Lord,
Who mighty is to save?

4 To Thee, my kind delivering friend,
I yield my sinful heart;
My all I give, till life shall end,
Nor from Thee will depart.

5 Upheld by Thine almighty grace,
My love to Thee I’ll prove;
With zeal will run the Christian race
Till I arrive above.
