This child from God above,
The Father’s gift divine—
To this new life of light and love
We give his seal and sign;
To bear the eternal name,
To walk the Master’s way,
The Father’s covenant to claim,
The Spirit’s will obey;
To take the Saviour’s cross,
In faith to hold it fast,
And for it reckon all things loss
As long as life shall last;
To tell his truth abroad,
To tread the path he trod,
With all who love and serve the Lord—
The family of God.
