Lyics

HEIRS of unending life,

While yet we sojourn here,

O let us our salvation work

With trembling and with fear.



God will support our hearts

With might before unknown;

The work to be performed is ours,

The strength is all his own.



'Tis he that works to will,

'Tis he that works to do;

His is the power by which we act,

His be the glory too!
