1 Witness, ye men and angels; now
Before the Lord we speak;
To Him we make our solemn vow,
A vow we dare not break:
2 That long as life itself shall last,
Ourselves to Christ we yield;
Nor from His cause will we depart,
Or ever quit the field.
3 We trust not in our native strength,
But on His grace rely;
That, with returning wants, the Lord
Will all our needs supply.
4 Lord, guide our doubtful feet aright,
And keep us in Thy ways;
And, while we turn our vows to prayers,
Turn Thou are prayers to praise.
