- 1What shall I render to my God,
- For all his kindness shown?
- My feet shall visit thine abode,
- My songs address thy throne.
- 2Among the saints that fill thine house,
- My offering shall be paid;
- There shall my zeal perform the vows,
- My soul in anguish made.
- 3How much is mercy thy delight,
- Thou ever blessed God!
- How dear thy servants in thy sight!
- How precious is their blood!
- 4How happy all thy servants are!
- How great thy grace to me!
- My life, which thou hast made thy care,
- Lord, I devote to thee.
